Smashing Pumpkins - Daphne Descends Lyrics






With the sugar sickness
You spy the kidnap kid
Who kids you to oblivion
It's the perfect hassle
For the perfumed kiss
He makes you miss him more than home

You love him
You love him more than this
You love him and you cannot, you can't resist
You love him
You love him for yourself
You love him and no one, no one else

Past sidewalk ashes
A last lovers arc
You come apart to intertwine
It was all so simple
As you watched him move
Across the darkness in your room

You love him
You love him for youself
You love him and no one, no one else

And the winding vines
The pretty boys dive
And thru the pinhole stars
Into the shadow mind
You will lose him then
On some gentle dawn
This boy is here and gone

You love him
You love him for yourself
You love him and no one, no one else
You love him
You love him more than this
You love him and you cannot, you can't resist

You love him...

    When did YouTube become Corporate Spam Tube?

  2. w.... ....

    adore is the one for me, favorite album by them. only one i frequently play in my adult life.

  3. M.... ....

    this is where the album begins

  4. G.... B....

    it's a good song, but it really highlights how gay this album is.

  5. J.... C....

    Daphne Descends!!!! El adore es la obra cumbre de Billy Corgan, el mejor disco de Smashing Pumpkins. Que por cierto fueron lo mejor de EEUU en los 90s por encima de Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Sound Garden y Alice in Chains todas excelentes bandas. You love him,you love him for your self🎵🎵🎵

  6. c.... f....

    Stupenda canzone anche se mi ricorda il periodo più buio della mia vita

  7. L.... G....

    This album deserves 5 💜💜💜💜💜

  8. S.... ....

    man shaggy and daphne must've had an argument that didn't go to well

  9. J.... G....

    Billy described this album once as a band falling apart.

    While that might be true, it doesn’t reflect too much in the quality of the music. Although if you do know that this album is a band falling apart it kinda enhances the experience of listening to it.

  10. A.... A....

    Is there no good HD upload of this song? I like it.

    Edit: https://youtu.be/ey6G7GCqq8U

    A.... A....

    I noticed this same thing. Ugh! This is in 240p which is a crime for a song of such high caliber.

  11. R.... B....

    You love him
    You love him more than this
    You love him and you cannot, you can't resist

    *through

  12. N.... ....

    I was 18 “homeless” taken in after I got a restraining order on my ex fiancé after he broke my nose...I’d play this full blast at my friend’s house when no one was home where I was taken in...and sang along to Adore while cleaning to try to show my appreciation to the family...feeling like Cinderella without the whimsical ending. I got kicked out when he wouldn’t stop banging on windows and doors in middle of night...hard time in my life...I love that family more than they’ll ever know...they tried

    N.... ....

    NakedFairy you should have kept your legs closed and done something with your life. Boys aren't everything you know! ):-|

    N.... ....

    I'm sorry you went through that. Billy Corgan helped us all when we were down...

    N.... ....

    They know. Hope you're well.

  13. D.... G....

    LOOOOOOVE!

  14. H.... H....

    I love ‘Adore’ but definitely takes me back to some 90’s flavored sadness

  15. J.... D....

    song is awesome but the pumpkins are the worst band about mixing the chorus around so that you feel stupid when singing along lol.

  16. J.... D....

    the guitar run before the first you love him you love him more than this part is perfection.

  17. R.... W....

    “YOU LOVE HAM”

    R.... W....

    Ryan White noooooo. I can't unhear this now! lolololol

    R.... W....

    Who doesn't?

    R.... W....

    🙄😂

  18. C.... A....

    Good song...Siamese Dreams is without question there best Album...period

    C.... A....

    I agree with you. I think Gish is nearly perfect as well.

  19. c.... b....

    Every time I hear this song, I always picture I’m in this all white painted church-like castle. It’s complete heaven

  20. F.... S....

    Arguably the most underrated smashing pumpkins song. Absolutely staggering

  21. p.... ....

    I used to listen to this awesome album on the bus ride to high school on my old Discman. What a time to be a teenager.

    p.... ....

    psychocuda me too! Only, I used to walk to school. Those were definitely the days. 🥰

    p.... ....

    Then 9/11 happened. Thanks israel.

  22. T.... -....

    Mais ou menos...

  23. S.... D....

    best song on the album

  24. a.... s....

    There is something about this track !
    Rock, love and gothic !

  25. B.... ....

    I don't know why but even after a long time this song plays in my head and I keep coming back, it's so addictive!

  26. j.... ....

    I remember this album when I was 15. This was my favorite song, and it was playing when I got laid for the first time, stoned and careless.

    Now I'm just happy when I don't have to put in more than 55 hours a week at work, my wife is in a good mood, and the daughter sleeps past 6 AM. Such is life, I suppose.

    j.... ....

    same feelings here!

    j.... ....

    You poor bastard; totally caught in the machine, the Machine (Machina) that Sir Billy all warned us about. Good luck and Godspeed you dapper son of a bitch.

  27. R.... E....

    I close my eyes to this and I am back on the island.bittersweet memories come alongside this beautiful album xxx

  28. E.... D....

    You love him

  29. V.... K....

    real great

  30. U.... D....

    This song is a 10, no joke.

  31. j.... ....

    My first serious boyfriend loved this album.

  32. k.... ....

    Best SP album

  33. d.... ....

    I always loved how the E-bow segued from Perfect into Daphne Descends seamlessly as you descend into the abyss of the underworld.

    d.... ....

    they are both connected by that surreal sound

  34. A.... T....

    El mejor disco de ellos,para mi,sin duda alguna...
    criticado por muchos,alabado por otros muchos.....una obra de arte!!!!!

    A.... T....

    Es maravilloso

    A.... T....

    Es definitivamente el mejor album

    A.... T....

    En algunos momentos me resulta plano, pero en su conjunto es muy denso, con una complejidad y contundencia en los arreglos en ciertos momentos, que son realmente chapó

  35. I.... M....

    My girlfriend showed me this song, she's name is Daphne :,3

  36. A.... N....

    you love him you love him for yourself!

  37. k.... ....

    30 yrs old and this song still brings me back to the feelings I felt when I was dating my first "boyfriend"

    k.... ....

    killerqueenbea that's funny. I discovered this track when I met my first girlfriend. Those dense layer cake synths always make me feel like I'm hearing this song for the first time. Such a fucking indescribable sound, this song. I listen to this song loud. hahaha.

    k.... ....

    The pretty boys dive

    k.... ....

    Who cares. Women are heartless whores.

  38. I.... L....

    I was listening this cause my lover adores listening music while he drives... Amazing

    I.... L....

    +Joey Foscor congrats to both! this music is a good company for those special moments

    I.... L....

    +Joey Foscor you should upload some of this stuff to your channel

  39. K.... G....

    Adore - Starkes Album - sehr intensiv

  40. J.... E....

    This is my favorite Smashing Pumpkins album.....Machina comes in close second, but this one will always have a special place in my heart. <3

    J.... E....

    +Whacking Watermelons I think Machina gives the impression of a burnt out adult

    J.... E....

    Ah. That makes the most sense.

    J.... E....

    Jess Elaine yes and your glasses look hot,and this song is great,I'll bathe to it and keep you in mind,not do anything sexual but just soak up the emotions lol,kidding,you are pretty though

    J.... E....

    I agree this is probably their best album. It's timeless

    J.... E....

    Mines too, this was my VIRGIN freshmen years in HIGH-SCHOOL...😂😂😂😂😂

  41. S.... D....

    I love him 💕

  42. A.... G....

    The best SP album, this song is just awesome

  43. A.... U....

    very machina

    A.... U....

    This one and Stand Inside Your Love are actually my favourite SP works. True masterpieces from Corgan and co

  44. T.... ....

    Zgadzam się z przedmówcą  Adore to jeden z bardziej  nie docenionych albumów. Słucha się go łatwo lekko mimo iż  rozbudza w nas  różne emocje , nie da się ukryć Adore jest smutnym albumem zarazem bardzo delikatnym i pięknym. Nie daje powera daje przemyślenia. Dla mnie to świetny album na całe życie, jedyne do czego można się przyczepić to nie dociągniecia w oprawie muzycznej, brakuje żywej muzyki......

    T.... ....

    Bardzo smutnym ale .... kazdy wie jakim kto go rozumie

  45. S.... T....

    I really think Adore is one of the more underrated albums out there. 

    S.... T....

    @inphanta wrong..machina was their last honest album

    S.... T....

    1. Machina/Machina II . 2. Adore. 3. Others

    In my humble opinion, and subject to my mood at the time, of course.

    Great song, this.

    S.... T....

    For me, it's Siamese Dream, Gish, this, and then Mellon Collie. I love all of them, but I never got the hype for Mellon Collie. It seemed a very stylized album, and didn't hit me as much on a personal level... except with maybe 1979.


    If they have others, I have not listened to them.

    S.... T....

    Dare I say, for those in their 20s & 30s in the late 1990s, this album will always be associated with those late-Saturday/early-Sunday weekend fun...

    S.... T....

    so true tuna boy. i totally agree!!!!

  46. T.... ....

    I think this album was very underrated. I felt that Siamese Dreams and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness had such a huge impact that when Adore came out, hardly anyone gave it a chance. 

    T.... ....

    +Theshark15z it´s beacuse the other two albums, that you have mentioned before, where very gut, but made for a much more easier audicences, and this one brokes the mold, interesting, melancholic, elegant, electronic, so was not really took it serouisly, without mentioning than only two singles where taken public from it, which is a waste cuz this akbum has many many song that would made it very well if were singles for the radio, sorry for my englisch, greetings

    T.... ....

    +Cmel F. ^^truth. I finally listened to this album all the way through for the first time. incredibly underrated. so unique and ahead of its time. I get why some fans abandoned it, Billy really took their music in a more electro rock like direction. Moody and dreamy.

  47. S.... R....

    you love him

  48. 5.... O....

    Probably my favorite SP song.

  49. n.... ....

    this song give me chills... ohhh that e-bow!

  50. A.... L....

    best album of my 17 years....what a memories!

  51. c.... r....

    Yes this is EVANGELION 2014 BCCM

  52. a.... d....

    you love him....

    holy fuck that ending still gives me chills
