Скачать или смотреть Laufey - Promise | COSMO Session

Das Schwierigste an einem Versprechen an sich selbst ist, dass es so leicht zu brechen ist. Die isländische Singer-Songwriterin hat damit scheinbar auch die ein oder andere Erfahrung gemacht und haucht diese in ihrer unnachahmlichen jazzigen Art melancholisch-souverän ins Mikro. Einsamkeit in der Liebe trifft Einsamkeit am Piano.

LYRICS
I made a promise
To distance myself
Took a flight, through aurora skies
Honestly, I didn't think about
How we didn't say goodbye
Just see you very soon

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

So I didn't call you
For sixteen long days
And I should get a cigarette
For so much restraint
No matter how long I resist temptation
I will always lose

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you

I've done the math
There's no solution
We'll never last
Why can't I let go of this?
So I broke my promise
I called you last night
I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have
If it weren't for the sight of a boy
Who looked just like you
Standing out on Melrose Avenue

It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
