Camera Obscura - The Sweetest Thing Lyrics
I'm going on a date tonight
To try to fall out of love with you
I know, I know, this is a crime
But I don't know what else to do
My love, you're doing fine, you're on TV
You wore my heart out then you ran away
From Chicago to Cleveland you made me pay
You made me pay
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
"50 ways to leave your lover", oh no
I laughed at the irony
But like a stupid, the irony got lost on me
It got lost on me
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
You challenged me to write a love song
Here it is I think I got it wrong
I focused on the negative
The pain was too much of an incentive
Always my incentive
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you song
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid, you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
But she don't know just how far I'd go
Would I walk for a hundred miles for a glimpse of your northern smile?

Camera Obscura The Sweetest Thing Comments
mucho gracias guapito cancion
Has anyone started a tread trying to guess all the costumes? Simon and Garfunkel. Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks. David Bowie. What’s the guy with the long hair and mustache giving the middle finger supposed to be?
Dr. Who
Looks like Leslie Knope dresses as Ron Swanson for Halloween.
Been out of the loop. Just found out. Rest in Heaven, Carey Lander.
Sincerely,
Predada Severa,
of the illuminati hierarchies
Heard this eating At Boston market had to Shazam it love the melody 🎤🎼💯

Her eyes are so soulful 💕💔💕💕
Better than Led Zeppelin or the Rolling Stones.
Rest In Peace babe. Always love you
Im enjoying their music do they ever play live?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
0:08 Kate Bush - Lionheart
sweetest thing is definitely one of the best songs
Okay, having checked out "Lloyd" because I hear it at work occasionally, I'm now on my third song by this band I've never heard of and they have scored every time. Very cool.
Good things.
😍😍😍
This was playing in the changing room of Nordstrom Rack Toronto a few d ago. It immediately connected with me. Shazamed and now enjoying on Spotify . Great music
Goddamn I miss Carey...
Beautiful and wholesome. Feelgood video for a feelgood song. Only shadowed by the fact Carey Lander's no longer with us. RIP
My anxiety has been cured
😂 👍😘
Omg didn't even know she had passed away 😢😢
I hate that I found this song today, that first verse is so well written.
The Fleetwood mac album's reference, I GOT IT! LOL
I'm going on a date tonight
To try to fall out of love with you
I know, I know this is a crime
But I don't know what else to do
My love, you're in a magazine
My love, you're doing fine, you're on TV
You pull my heart out and then you run away
From Chicago to Cleveland you leave me pain
You leave me pain
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
On the bus radio, "Fifty ways to leave your lover alone"
I laughed at the irony
But life is stupid, the irony all lost on me
It got lost on me
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
You challenged me to write a love song
Here it is, I think I got it wrong
I focused on the negative
The pain was too much to write and sing
Oh, it was not a nice incentive
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my other to hear you sing
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my other to hear you sing
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother to hear you sing
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
I would trade my mother
But she don't know just how far I'd go
Would I walk for a hundred miles for a glimpse of your northern smile
03:10 is the girl from french navy video
Just now discovering them and I love her voice 😊
found them by accident, great accident. Yes if they were around during my adolescents mid 60s and early 70s perfect
R.I.P Carey Lander
also Doctor Who is life
rip carey
Does anyone else think the dude at 1:41 looks like Chad Kroeger?
lavender diamond? are you here? there? and everywhere?
this is one of my most favorite songs ever
.....Dang.......Lush.......!
I just start to follow this band to find out that Carey Lander died in 2015. its sad. at least we have her legacy
Best accidental finding for a long time , love it ,
take me back to glasgow 2009
0:31 Those trans-facials are at it again.
I accidentally found this song out of all places? playing over department speakers at a big lots. Cool song....
i was eating with my ex boyfriend and this song played we both share silence enjoy this song..
Regina Kusuma Let me love you!
I look disturbingly good with a fake mustache too
Discovering this band has been the sweetest thing...
is that a reenactment of one of Feetwood Mac's album cover?
Nope - Simon and Garfunkel
@Don Habel Nope. One of the members of the band is dressed up as Mick Fleetwood, while another is dressed as Stevie Nicks. You can see them trying to pose like they do on the cover of the album Rumours around the 1:09 mark.
Only just stumbled across Camera Obscura....I know disgraceful isn't it, but love em
good song
As a huge Simon & Garfunkel fan I love this video - great song too.
camera obscura will always remind me of freshman year of college. bike rides and picnics with my first love.
What was hiss name??
yous two pricks loverly twee song singers. I love you.
so good they should be massive but its great to love them while there so under appreciated
Today makes it a year since she passed. Still can't believe she's gone. :(
is it just me who still listening this song in 2016??
Suryo Anugrah hope you're still listening these days :p
listening forever and ever. <3
same...2018...and will again , next yr and in 2020 as well . . . . . let's hope the band auditions a few ladies and gets someone to carry on her legacy insofar as might be possible. . . .they CANNOT simply let the concept of cam.obscura die with carey !!
Who is the red head in this video? She is a poem!
Hey! It's tom baker!
He's even drawing. A Tardis that labeled "my house"
I just noticed this after listening to this song forever (well, 7 years). Hadn't watched the video very closely, I guess. :l Maybe, just maybe, with the Doctor in this video I can convince my son that my music is not garbage.
carey 😭😭😭
love....
Why is Melisandre the fire priestess there?
Also RIP Lemme and David Bowie ... "appearing" in this video.
Awesome song! Lead singer looks like the son of Dawn French & Amy Poehler

😪 bye carey
R.I.P. Carey Lander (1982-2015)
Mitch Doran yeah I think that she is playing Art G.
we still missing her
😭😭😓
holy shit i didnt even know this
Damn can't believe it's been four years already.
My Aunt Bunny had a mustache and when she kissed you you felt that scratchy hair on your cheek.
+Zim Farrasco Did she fall down the steps?
Great song that flows very smoothly!
major props to an awesome sounding group - hope to see them live one day soon!
Soothing and playful music such as this makes me wanna fall in love.
interesting little simon and garfunkel nod-- the back cover of bridge over troubled water lp-- that's why the one is wearing the blond wig and walking while leaning back as the other leans her head in-- cute
Is it me or was Cindy Sherman in this video?
I found this song by accident. I was looking for U2 sweetest thing.
BEST ACCIDENT EVER.
@No Name No Face All a matter of taste I suppose.
Fuckk your. Monitering systems me too, after that song, it played this on Spotify and I was definitely not disappointed.
Fuckk your. Monitering systems no it wasn't an accident😀
Fuckk your. Monitering systems same
It's bands like these that make me want to be in love.
ha, gaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy
im jus foolin, alessis ark and elliott smith make me wish i could want to be in love/ fkitall
But ARE YOU ready to be heartbroken?
Being “in love” with someone is wrong. You should love them but not be in love with someone. Meaning that if you’re in love you put all your energy and time into this one person making them your god.
It's songs like this that make me want to shove it in a girl who wants to BE IN LOVE...
t a Campbell youre the total best quality lassie....love listening to you singing....xxxxx
just a guyfan fae edinbra
this is on my fave bar...listen to it getting ready in the morning......I love her voice
The lead singer of this incredibly captivating song reminds me of Jennifer Aniston, at least in this video!
I love optical device that projects an image of its surroundings on a screen.
What a voice.
