The WAEVE - City Lights

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1991646
Verse 1
Now your soul belongs to me
It'll be alright
Out in the darkness, free to fly
We'll get some sleep tomorrow
And the machine gun words you say
Dropped on my mind like bombs
Where any casual throwaway
Late in the night like sorrow

Chorus
Those city lights
They belong to me
You're in my soul, in my soul
Take me over to the other side, now
(Oh, ooh, ah)

Verse 2
I need the speed, you need the wine
To face the darkness song
Put on your heels, destroy their minds
And you’ll be theirs to borrow
You know I hate to see the night
Hold you in his arms
I know that if I do it right
You’ll be mine tomorrow

Chorus
Thosе city lights
They belong to me
You'rе in my soul, in my soul
Take me over to the other side, now

(Oh, ooh, ah)

Biography

edit bio
A collaborative project between Graham Coxon, the guitarist of Blur and Rose Elinor Dougall, ex-Pipettes member.
They performed their launch show at the Lexington on May 4th.

They came together after exchanging messages during the lockdown Christmas of 2020. They soon started writing songs before their collaboration “gave rise to an unexpected sonic universe” (Via NME)

They released a statement on Instagram:
“The coming together of two musicians, who through working together have formed a new, singular, sonic identity. Themes of oblivion and surrender are juxtaposed with suggestions of hopefulness and light.
Against a brutal global backdrop of impending apocalypse and despair, Graham Coxon and Rose Elinor Dougall strove to free themselves through the defiant, blind optimism of making music.”
