Monarch

Leslie Feist( 妃絲特 ) Monarch歌詞
1.Family

In a dressmaker shop in Greece
The pins stick like tongues on poles or butts in an ashtray
Lunchtime packages, waxed and wrapped and held
Down a dusty road, inside and apron ford

It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more

You know my grandpa brought power to the plains/planes
Now he winks at me from thirty thousand feet
Now my uncle's got his face
And he takes the power to a different place
Hey hey he's ok

It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more

In the Copenhagen city morgue
The dead sleep in metal slips
Called and last
And someone loved them once
And someone loves them still
And someone misses them
And someone always will

You know that it's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
It's cool it's cool to love your family
I know because I love them more and more


2.Onliest

He sailed the seas to Normandy
He had the maps laid out
He had a boat and had a sail
'Jack's Girl' on his arm

But no one sees the stars so bright
No one swims alone at night
I'm missin' him like a heart attack
And Neptune won't bring him back

He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me
He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me

Deepness of the waving tide
All the sea is saying goodbye
And the moon dips aloof at four
The sea doesn't keep score

He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me
He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me

Sweetness of the salty wind
Depth of love when it just begins
A pint for me and one for you
Say a toast with all who knew


3.La Sirena

La sirena
You are heart in the waves
La sirena
You are heart in the waves
You are heart in the waves
Cause you are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
La sirena
You are heart in the waves
In the waves
You are heart in the waves
In the waves
Cause you are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
You are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you
Are the end of me
Yeah you are the end of me


4.One Year A.D.

I had a routine
I wonder what I'll do today
I've got a feeling
I'll be doing the same things all over again
Again

So here, here I came
To present myself a newer hell
Face, body, and mouth
Place the mirror to me
In every episode, well

Bring all the spaces together
And all the silences ever
Bring all the spaces together

Come close again
Be my pause before the end
I miss you, oh, like a fading dream
And I have a feeling you know what I mean

Looking at pictures
The taste, the smell
Not the friends

And in our old kitchen
Record player never ends
They were once
But now no more
You know that it's real
And they were before
Nothing said and silence gained
And my body grows but heart lays

Blink hard and set it to ink
These items fade faster than you think
Feelin'low in a major key
Do they remember me now that it's one year A.D.

Bring all the spaces together
And all the silences ever
Bring all the spaces together

Build all the silences up


5.Monarch

The Queen had a feint had a fall
Don't give me ether or open my vein I'm sane
I know I'm sane
I don't give a care for the crown or the shield
I will not protect you or happily yield
To the one who makes me come undone

Who was born and in what way
All the fields and poppies ay
Who was born and in what way
All the fields

The Queen is walking away with only her stockings on
Waving having forbidden pears and song
Valiant and the colours are too gold
Colours of the morning old

Who was born and in what way
All the fields and poppies ay
Who was born and in what way
All the fields

Monarch now lay (your) jeweled head
Monarch now lay (your) jeweled head
Monarch now lay your jeweled

Monarch now lay your jeweled head
Monarch now lay your jeweled head
Monarch now lay your jeweled head

The Queen saw the beast in the ribs of the garden
Husband dear you are nearer to the eye
You're thrown places you wouldn't hold a pardon stroked

By the hand of God
By the hand of God
Through you is so cruel

Who was born and in what way
Who was born and in what way


6.That's what I say, it's not what I mean

Here I am, hopeful again
I can't say when
I wasn't this way

Don't need to worry about me
That's what I say
It's not what I mean
That's what I say
It's not what I mean

Here I am, swinging alone
A timeframe surrounds the pictures I hold
But they don't hold up well
Started to wonder if I fell in love with you at all
If I fell in love with you at all

And when will a time come
I could hear a sad love song, that doesn't speak to me
And when will a time come
I could sing a nice love song, using thou and me

Here I am, walking away
My head's held high
What's the use gettin' down
Because all that I wanted is here
I just kept the ground, close to my ears
I just kept the ground, close to my ears

And when will a time come
When will it come
Ooh


7.Flight #303

Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three

Bring a lot of love
Bring a lot of love
Bring a lot of love
And you knew would be left way way waiting

Wear a yellow hat
I catch you fallen at the laundromat
See pilot soon
And even he would give you your

Flight number
Flight number
Flight number flight

Flight number
Flight number
Flight number flight

Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three

See a tailor soon
He'll call you on your life of silver spoon
No one gets a say on how to raise and in what way way way way

Put some faith in the apartment twine
Get red key and a door to lock up
I like to think I am a one way lie
So you don't wait until the time is right

Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three
Three oh three

Three oh three


8.Still true

I like my covers to be heavy
So I don't get cold when I sleep
My love affairs always seem unsteady
And I never go half-way when I weep

Take me anywhere
With you
Take me in your care
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
I'm still true

Take on my spine and spit shine it
Pull on my heart and unwind it
Fold my wings back off my shoulderblades
And peel me

Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you

Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you
Take me anywhere
With you

Still true


9.The Mast

Found a place where I can be
All the things I want you to see
Take my hand into your hands
'Cause I come to you from another land

And I don't need to know your favourite artist's name
And I don't need to know what woman's felt the same
And I don't need to see you every single day
But I'd like to

Break my heart back into place
'Cause I've come to understand you more lately
And I've found a man inside your chest
Some will tear him up and I'll lay him some rest
Rest

And I don't need to know the details of your past
And I don't need to know when you thought of me last
And I would have to say if I'm the sail then you're the mast
And we've caught a good wind, the mast

Because you know me more than any before
'Cause you found the clues between me and you
You know me more than any before
'Cause you found the clues between me and you


10.New Torch

You are, you are
You are everything in time and space
Forget the face you knew

You are, you are
This was written in the afternoon
The ancient runes of you

Take a trip into the sky with me
Fly with me

You are, you are
You are everything I've always feared
And disappear from view

Take a trip into the sky with me
Fly with me

Be mine through time
This way leads into the garden green
Some nights I've seen you here

Take a trip into the sky with me
Fly with me
