Duncan Sheik - Distant Lovers Lyrics






Oh, the things you say
Can ruin a day
We are distant lovers
Such distant lovers

The sky's an angry grey
But we can't look away
We try to break one another
We try to break one another

Landing in some turquoise town
Best not sleep around
There's whispering
They're listening
Then talking
The world is watching

Oh! Don't stay so far away
My distant lover, my distant lover
Oh! The things you say
We try to break one another
We try to break one another

It's there in black and white
We fuss and we fight
I'm a difficult boy
With a difficult mother

So let's chalk it up to that
The unavoidable fact
It's a difficult world
We try to break one another

Some attractions take you down
Best not mess around
Keep walking
There will be talking
So much talking
The world is watching

Oh! Don't stay so far away
My distant lover, my distant lover
Oh! The things you say
We try to break one another
We try to break one another
Oh! Why are you so far away?
My distant lover, my distant lover
No I won't hear a word they say
I don't want to lose another
I don't want to lose another

  1. M.... ....

    You did it again Mr. Sheik 💪🏼Wouldnt you agree he never ceases to out do himself ?

    Best album yet in my O.

  2. J.... C....

    This CD compilation is so moving and powerful. The articulation of the word combined with refreshing changes from verse to chorus combined with really amazing percussion and rhythm. Duncan Sheik is one of the great artists of our time.

    The awesome thing about Duncan Sheiks art is...the beginning. The first time listening to the songs...I find myself so intrigued from one line of words...leaning with the most curiosity and intensity in the space that connects to the second or third line forming that scenario from Duncans life that he is willing to offer and share.

    Duncan sees things most people probably don't see...listening to the music is like watching a movie...concise enough to share himself yet abstract enough to leave me some creative meanderings within myself.

    These songs are so singable.
    I cannot thank Duncan enough for adding this powerful force to my daily grind.

    I hope he is around for a long time to come, takes care of his body and mind to the best and continues to push his own artistic limits in a way that this compilation proves he does.


    Peace
