Empty brick apartment chimes a song
Every time you walk through me you'll never be alone
Market place I never wished to go
Paper dolls and cigarettes all covered in snow
You're sitting on the balcony below
Looking at me, crying to me over and over
Photographs sleep quietly today
Making fun of everything you wanted to say
Everything that happened turned to snow
Careful with your words and you were lying, lying
Memories all shout "don't let me go"
Every breath I took and they were dying, dying.
Butterflies all withered in the snow
Airplanes fly above the crooked icebergs below
Your words were like the battleships of gold
Your eyes surrendered, telling me all I wanted to know
Everything that happened turned to snow
Careful with your words and you were lying, lying
Memories all shout "don't let me go"
Every breath I took and they were dying, dying.
Radiant bossa nova melodies overlap with nature sounds and muted electronic percussion on the Brazilian singer-songwriter's "solar album." Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 18, 2023
