Eleanor - Edit Songtext

von Hot Chip

When you′re standing there
Can you really
Just ignore his prayers
To be reu-nited with that child
That has lost its
Father standing there
By his side and

When I walk out in the sea
All the waves crash over me
When the world smashes into you
Let it be a central part of you

If you choose to remember me
Hold me gently as you fall asleep
Even if you believe that there's nothing more
I feel heaven knocking at our door

Eleanor
Evermore
Eleanor
Evermore
Eleanor
Evermore

When you′re standing there
Can you really (Eleanor)
Just ignore the call
Of memory (Eleanor)
To be back in those arms
And walk again (Eleanor)
In the moment when
You were still friends

Don't you know we're not roving free
We′re just a part of ecology
And when the words are escaping me
I try to speak with economy

If you choose to remember me
Hold me gently as you fall asleep
Even if you believe that there′s nothing more
I feel heaven knocking at our door

Eleanor
Evermore
Eleanor
Evermore

Eleanor

You're like Andre the Giant
On his way to school (Eleanor)
Beckett gave him a ride
Before there was carpool (Eleanor)
He knew to pick him up
Show him the way to go (Eleanor)
I bet he learned a thing
Riding with Andre in tow

If you choose to remember me
Hold me gently as you fall asleep
Even if you believe that there′s nothing more
I feel heaven knocking at our door
Eleanor

See you forming in my (Eleanor)
Marazion memories
I see you calling in these (Eleanor)
Marazion memories
