Beach House - Gila Lyrics
Man, you got a lot of jokes to tell
So you throw your baby's pennies down the well
Give a little more than you like
Pick apart the past, you're not going back
Don't you waste your time
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a-a
Sure, you've got a handle on the past
It's why you keep your little lovers in your lap
Give a little more than you like
Pick apart the past, you're not going back
So don't you waste your time
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a-a
Hoping for the last ship to arrive
I am blessed with a kingdom, half mine.
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a

GILA " CRAZY" IN INDONESIAN 😂
Love this album... Gila is beautiful ❤️❤️
Different from Loft Music, but just as good👍🏼
This was posted on my birthday, for the two of you who care

If you listen closely, just before the chorus, she says “Laaaa” and then “Gila”. You put “la gila” together, and you get, “the crazy girl”. Maybe someone called her “La Loca” out of endearment?
Anywho, that’s my conspiracy theory.
thats the dope thing about alot of Beach House songs is that ambiguity that allows us all to apply our own personal theories on their meanings she could juss say any words the emotion her vocal dictates imo
V I B E S
I’m glad I came across this one video, my first exposure to Beach House was Space song love love love em and Gila has become one of my go-to´s. Victoria, her voice is just....it’s otherworldly honestly! Not one day has gone by that I don’t listen to Beach House
Lift music
Loft Music brought me here but just as great in its own way
wow gila means crazy in my language, bahasa indonesia... i love shoe gaze band
Sounds better at 1.25x
Love y'all so much
Gila=crazy
the flickering faces from 4:00-4:18 are so coool and witchy and deeply scary
I've loved this song for the longest and never saw the video.. and it is more than amazing.
Imagine you’re listening to this song while you’re smoking pot
Imagine? I just did it.
Love y'all so much !!_!!
Just like heaven
Beach House is the Rock and Roll of this generation
Beach house was amazing, and even through the bullshit of that day i still think of it as one of the best experiences of my life. You're in Florida now. Happy, living the life you longed for. Youve found it in yourself to love, again. As much as it upsets me, it makes me happy. It makes me happy that i didn't completely ruin you like you claimed. It makes me happy that you found someone you can put your trust into. Someone to invest your time in. I know I messed up. I know I took advantage and didnt love you like i should. But despite all the mean words that were exchanged, I know you still loved me. For your sake, im so glad you moved on. I was shit. Absolute shit. This was the first song i showed you by Beach House. You loved it. It was the little things and i was too egocentric to see just how easy it was to love you. Its 7AM. I haven't slept. Im afraid because for the last two weeks you're all ive dreamt of. I hope one dsy we cross paths again. When we've grown. I already have so much love to give. I cant even imagine how itll be years from now. Its not the same without your energy anymore. Until next time, take it easy, pouty lip. Im glad youve found the happiness you wanted. And im sorry i couldnt be the one to do it. But such is life. And it got in the way, just like we feared.
one of the best of Beach house
this song is so good wtf
ohhhhhh. God I love this song
Only a million views over 10 years? This entire song is fantastic
She looks perfect in this vid
What you doin' in the bathroom?.....
I hear noises in the bathroom
Art school explosion!!!
Remember Lana del rey.
I came here after hearing this in a chillstep mix
I showed her Lazuli, she made Gila her BH song.
If you read this, come back, maybe? Do you know BH is bra in german?
what’s good young hoe, you about it?
O O O o
2018 anyone?
A la GILAda ni cabida
In some languages, Gila translates to blame, accuse or complain. I think this song is about a failed marriage, resulting in bickering and compromising each others happiness (man you've got a lot of jokes to tell/so you throw your baby's pennies down the well). Especially because pennies symbolize unity, I think they are trying to metaphorically explain the failed bond. And how reminiscing to a time where the relationship was functioning won't do any good (pick apart the past, you're not going back). Maybe there's even a child born (the narrator) of the toxic relationship which would explain the 'I am blessed with a kingdom half mine'. Regardless of the meaning, it is my favourite beach house song of all times.
Don't hear too many bands I love song after song. This was one of those!
Your voice is hypnotizing sweetheart!
Drugs n shit? I don’t get the video at all. Song is great.
Yeah wankers... You're here because of loft music... Fuck you and your weekend.
Oddly, I just heard Beach House for the first time at Saint George's English Bookshop in Berlin. It was such a perfect soundtrack for peacefully browsing books.
Gila means crazy in malay
I could stare into those bangs for at least a quarter of a century.
It means beautiful to me
You can find the piano tutorial on my channel if you want to learn how to play this.
Su voz me envuelve, me acaricia como gato, hace que no me pueda resistir a acurrucarme en sus ojos...
Big Sur was a great show. I'm sure by now it's been a few, but it's just as good live. Keep on keeping on.
this is basically why I'm more critical of "Thank Your Lucky Stars" than most - it's similarly lo-fi to their earlier stuff but I just can't discover quite as good songwriting there. "Gila" or "Heart of Chambers" just kick ass.
I think Gila is referring to the Gila Monster, a venomous lizard that inhabits the southwestern US. There is also the Gila forest located in New Mexico.
In Argentina Gila means "stupid girl",for example:" EH Alta gila sos!
why she has the hands like that though?
Só sei sentir.
pleasant mind fuck <3
This video was my first exposure to Beach House. Have been listening to them pretty much non-stop ever since.
I looked for this song for 1 month and finally gave up. Today I ran into it by accident and for that I'm grateful
Abel must really listen to beach house
min yoongi rap legend my god you have a GD profile pic with Yoongi's name and seems like u dig into Abel's old shit. K hi fam
Loft Music
why beach house named their song GILA?
Loft music.
The entire Devotion is very lynchian!!!
this song forever has my heart. i always feel so much more emotional when i listen to beach, its unlike anything else.
If Lykke Li covered this song or Master of None, I'd probably lose it in the best way.
Man, you got a lot of jokes to tell
So you throw your baby's pennies down the well
Give a little more than you like
Pick apart the past, you're not going back
Don't you waste your time
No, oh, oh, oh
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a-a
Sure, you've got a handle on the past
It's why you keep your little lovers in your lap
Give a little more than you like
Pick apart the past, you're not going back
Hoping for the last ship to arrive
I am blessed with a kingdom, half mine
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a-a-a
Gila-a-a
Kendrick lamar, asap rocky and few other musical artist have bitten off of BH. BH is the best shoegaze band of all time.
I like to come here because this song is so relaxing, and I get to talk to real Abel fans. Not those fucking newbies. I love it.
A_Girl_Has_No_Namee facts.
Gila means crazy tho...
loft music
The Weeknd samples some good ass songs lowkey
I didn't know I had a song 😂😜 jk
I've been blessed with a kingdom... half-mine
gila means crazy in malaysian language lol XD
I can't even put in words what their songs do to me. Kind of feels like my soul has been searching for music like this my whole life.
@Vitor Carvalho gdie
can't live without it now
That's Beach House for you. Saw them Live last year. Man. Talk about loss for words.
Just seen them at bellwether OMG I need this in my life every day now.
