Domino Effect

I haven’t laughed this hard in a couple of years
It’s the kind of laugh that turns into tears
And oh, your smile so golden
We’re all invited to the sky being divided in two
A yellow ochre and a cornflower blue
The day is breaking through but we’re still holding on
And no one would suspect
Love’s domino effect
As soon as one starts falling
They all start falling
And why try to resist
When it’s a lot more fun to kiss
As soon as you start falling
We all start falling
I’m the director of the movie that I watch in my mind
But you’re in charge of set design
No big production, but it’s entertaining
And if I may be so bold
The greatest story that I’ve ever been told
Even if sometimes it needs explaining--Oh… Oh? Oh, okay
And no one would suspect
Love’s domino effect
As soon as one starts falling
They all start falling
And why try to resist
When it’s a lot more fun to kiss
As soon as you start falling
I start falling
Into love
And out again
And something else indeed
When you find that all you need
Is somebody to call a friend
And no one would suspect
Love’s domino effect
As soon as one starts falling
They all start falling
And why try to resist
When it’s a lot more fun to kiss
As soon as you start falling
We all start falling

Take another sip on my ginseng tea
Gonna try to be asleep by three
Looking out my window at the bridge over Gwanganli
Well I guess it’s not so bad here
Yeah I guess I’ll stay one more year
And I’m gonna figure it all out
Figure it all out after
I’m gonna figure it all out
Figure it all out after
Can’t stop rolling around in my bed
Singing all the songs stuck in my head
Thought I could bypass time, but time, it’s bypassed me instead
Well at least I’m not alone here
Yeah I think I’ll call it home here
And I’m gonna figure it all out
Figure it all out after
I’m gonna figure it all out
Figure it all out after
But in the meantime
In the meantime,
I might just go out and see the world
Yeah in the meantime
In the meantime,
I might just go out and see the world
And I’ll go get my heart broken
I’ll get it cracked wide open
‘Cuz that’s the only way I’m gonna know what’s inside
Take another sip on my ginseng tea
Gonna try to be asleep by three
Looking out my window at the bridge over Gwanganli

Champagne Problems

You’ve been out of your mind
Drowning in wine
Trying to feel some way
That you haven’t before
But who can be sure
This feeling is oh so strange
Déjà vu
Who’s fooling who?
Déjà vu
Did you feel it too?
We’ve been out of our heads
The flags are all red
We’re making the same mistakes
And it’s been here before
A million times, or more
The habit we just can’t break
Me and you
Who’s fooling who?
Déjà vu
Did you feel it too
Doesn’t it feel like an aftershock?
Shadows and echoes remain
Shadows and echoes remain
Never believe in an afterthought
The problems that come from champagne
The problems that come from champagne
I’ve been shutting my eyes
Every night
But still there’s so much to see
I thought you might like to know
About the fireworks show
That’s happening inside of me
Déjà vu
Who’s fooling who?
Déjà vu
Did you feel it too?
Doesn’t it feel like an aftershock?
Shadows and echoes remain
Shadows and echoes remain
Never believe in an afterthought
The problems that come from champagne
The problems that come from champagne

Pleasure

I learned a secret and promised to keep it
Locked up in the dark and out of view
Invisible to you
I was the king of the hermits the day that I learnt it
And nothing that I’ve said since then was true
But what else could I do
And if I had no enemies
Well that might be sublime
But what would I do with my time
What would I do with my time
I had a secret but somebody leaked it
Now everyone around is privy to
What I already knew
My very existence is under resistance
And I expect no mercy when it’s through
Especially from you
And if I had no enemies
Well that might be sublime
But what would I do with my time
What would I do with my time
'Cause it’s a pleasure to be unkind
It’s a pleasure to be unkind
And always a step behind all the time, all the time
Yeah it’s a pleasure to be unkind
But the pleasure was all mine
'Cause it’s a pleasure to be unkind
It’s a pleasure to be unkind
At war for a peace of mind all the time, all the time
Yeah it’s a pleasure to be unkind
But the pleasure was all mine

Well if loneliness was all you ever got
Always trying to be something you are not
Your shadow, undetected
Walks the long way
Would you still give all you had to someone else
Just to know him better than he knows himself
We’ll get along, we’ll get along
On the long way
So lay your burden at my feet
‘Cause life is slow and love is sweet
And you’re a story incompletely told
Oh please answer me a question, my dear son
Could you tell me what it is you’re running from?
And do you know when all this running might be done?
My nights are getting longer
My imagination isn’t what it was
When I had to be creative just because
But I’ll sing it all, I’ll sing it all
In a song dear
So lay your burden at my feet
‘Cause life is slow and love is sweet
And you’re a story incompletely told
You would never speak like this when you were young
With the words all hiding underneath your tongue
But I’ll sing it all, I’ll sing it all
To you
