On Larrabee
Music & Lyrics : Céline Schmink
Hello,
My dearest friend,
I’m feeling so-so,
Lying in the dark,
Years ago,
I was careless,
I didn’t know,
What was on your mind,
Chorus : I was too young to carry that weight,
But maybe too old to sit down and wait for you.
Good bye,
As in a dream I see your blue eyes,
On Larrabee,
From Heaven,
They judge my thoughts, myself and I,
Looking right through me,
Chorus 2 : I’m still too young to carry that weight,
And you’re now too cold,
To ask me « Please, wait for me ! ».
Hello,
Under grey skies,
I see it you know,
The pain it lasts.
I went / down to the river,
Where / you drowned,
To wish you a good night,
Chorus 3 :but I’m much too weak,
To carry that weight,
As you were too shy,
To dare to claim : « love me ! »
(Bridge)
Goodbye,
I throw stones in the water, you know,
It keeps me alive,
You’ve gone, too soon, too fast,
But what can I say ? « Ghost, get of my way !»,
Chorus 4 : I’m far too broken to be fixed and stay,
On Larrabbee Street, my tears are ripping my flesh.
