Franz Ferdinand - Leaving My Old Life Behind Lyrics
I learned quite a lot
Shooting through my mind
Things I never guessed at before
And so I decided
I don't need it anymore
I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds
I'm gonna learn to climb the wind
I wont stop til Ive understood the dark
I'm gonna learn to fly the clouds
I'm gonna understand the air
My mind will listen to the stars
And I help them as much as I can
But they'll never know that my mind is in the air
O how could they ever understand
I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds
I'm gonna pull upon the rain
I'll learn what lies beneath the earth
I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds
I'm gonna understand the space
I'll even go back beyond birth

Franz Ferdinand Leaving My Old Life Behind Comments
I play this song right before I get wasted
who's the Lady in this video?
Stella Luise Smith it's in the description
I didn't realise FF covered this - seems tailor-made for them as well! I only realised when I was hunting out a clip for Kenneth Anger's birthday - the old bastard is 90!
Not personally, but I do admire his work - those films are proper psychedelic.
Not personally, but I love his films - they're pure psychedelia!
a pearl
this is beautiful
It's not every day that I hear an exceptional cover. I think that the reason for this lies squarely on Franz's respect for Jonathan Halper's original style and artistic intent.
Nice,altough Halper's voice sounds little better.But this is not bad,and i think could be good in some movie or Tv series
el mejor cover de este tema
Never heard this song before, as a franz ferdinand fan, i'm in love with it <3
GREAT interpretation! I'm SO glad you kept the backwards guitar. This is one of my most favorite songs!
que tal cover eh muy buena (y)!!!!!!!!
I hear Jim Morrison......
Ma questa cover è proprio una merda sexy boy è carina
Andatevi a vedere il video di Ulysses live on Letterman è da ridere in una maniera pazzesca si vede Kapranos che non riesce ad accordare la chitarra nuova e la cambia con quella vecchia ahahah musicista scadente ahahah
Johnathan Halper is absolutely one of my favorite singers and hermits, so imagine my suprise at how much I adore this cover...brilliant <3 <3
It's a beautiful cover ♥
@Carla Martinez I'm impressed!!
What a great cover! Thank you Late Night Tales for this awesome compilation of our beloved guys' favourite songs :)
Greetings from Chile!
