Camera Obscura - Forests And Sands Lyrics






I'm in a van,
And you're holding my hand
And you were travelling with me through forest and sands

I've been ever so needy learning your language
And you've been taking full advantage, haven't you?
Oh, don't say it's true

I've been so afraid,
I'm a sadness again
And we kissed once, even that was the last

I know I need more than given
Moments and sentimental stories
Words only spoken seemingly
That I'm warming your heart that way

Oh, it feels like none of this is real
I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well
But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze,
Like a river in Toronto,
Then I'd bleed please,
You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside

Oh, it feels like none of this is real
I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well
But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze,
Like a river in Toronto,
Then I'd bleed please,
You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside

It feels like none of this is real
I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well
But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze,
Like a river in Toronto,
Then I'd bleed please,
You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside

    I'm in a van, and you're holding my hand
    You're traveling with me through forest and sands
    I've been innocently learning a language
    And you've been taking full advantage, haven't you?
    Oh, don't say it's true
    I've lost a friend, I've been silenced again
    And we kissed once
    Hey, but that was in lust
    I know you need more than giving moments
    And sentimental stories and words only spoken seemingly
    And I won't win your heart that way

    Oh, it feels like none of this is real
    I pretend that my heart and my head are well
    But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze like a river in Toronto,
    Then I'd be pleased
    You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside

  22. S.... P....

    Tears in my heart! Blood in my tong! Disbelief in my eyes!

  37. a.... a....

    This song gives me a feeling of melancholy but not in a bad way if that makes any sense.

    a.... a....

    Know what you mean buddy, it does give me a feeling of aching sadness inside. Not to the point of tears but still.. a kind of beautiful sadness.

    a.... a....

    I think the word you're looking for is yearning. At least that's what I think you're looking for.

    a.... a....

    Perfect sense

    a.... a....

    You just described Camera Obscura's entire discography. :)

    a.... a....

    E no dia 6 de setembro você estava no MASP e então, ao ouvir essa música, rapidamente gravou um pedaço dela pelo whats app e me enviou com a seguinte mensagem: " achei linda, só faltou você!"
    Nem eu e nem você conhecíamos esta música ou sabíamos quem a cantava.
    E então, agora, eu consegui descobrir e a banda é escocesa! rs
    Agora sou eu quem a oferece a você, Fabio Pereira Simao. s2

    Wonderful song. This band should be getting awards .Compared to most of the big groups patting each other on the backs these are miles better!!!

    G.... H....

    Spot On!!! Most of my friends never listen to anything less well known.If it not in the charts it does not exist !!

    G.... H....

    @Gary Howard
    That's terrible. I mean, sure there are some good songs charting, but then you have crap like "Anaconda" lol -.- Tell them to seek out other music!

    G.... H....

    Think it is a lost cause Seb.They have heard some of my CD collection including Camera Obscura but it fell on deaf ears!! At least there are people like you out there !!

    G.... H....

    @Gary Howard
    I suppose :0 Happy New Year btw :)

    They sound a lot like Opal- which is a great thing

  72. A.... R....

    Me encanta la cancion!

  73. S.... ....

    Woah, very precise description of what feeling this song gives me.

  74. s.... ....

    Second to none,,,,,,,,can't wait to see them live

  75. R.... ....

    Her voice captures the essence of a love between two that just won't bloom the way they want. This happens every time - for me. Btw: It's
    "I know YOU need more than given moments and sentimental stories
    AND words only spoken seemingly(?). AND I won't win your heart that way."
    The feelings in this song are absolutely beautiful anyway. Thank-you for posting.

  76. f.... ....
