Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask
For what I give to you
Is just what i'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
Like a new disease she's still too young
What I am to you (She´s still to young)
is not real (She´s still to young)
What I am to you (She´s still to young)
you do not need (She´s still to young)
What I am to you (She´s still to young)
is not real (She´s still to young)
What I am to you (She´s still to young)
O, so pretty! This was the first song I heard by Damien and definately what turned me onto him. I think I heard him on Letterman, then had to find the CD. Wonderful investment, I must say.
I agree, "you give me miles and miles of mountains and I ask for the sea," is a gorgeous line. And I absolutely love Lisa Hannigan's vocals in this song.

vocal this is a fantastic song.
with she's too young I think he means that the desease in his mind is still too young to do something about it, he wants some time before he can act and treat his problem.
but maybe he means the blowers daugther, the woman he loved, but is too joung for him (the blowers daugther is the daugter of his musicteacher)
It could be, i dont know in fact.
I just make it from it, because i'm convinced that everyone once will fall in love with somebody who is too joung or stuff... (i did )

vocal This song is just so amazing, i totally agree that if i could write something half as expressive and generally amazing as this i would be so proud.
something about this song just makes me want to cry and im not quite sure what it is, its just so overwhelming, but in a very very good way
Listening and watching the song every day for almost four weeks, covers from time to time a great part of my emotional spectrum and I love it,...can someone tell me more about Lisa Hannigan

vocal "And what I am to you, is not what you mean to me." I don't know why, but that line is what got me hooked on Damien Rice. He's a great talent, and should get more credit here in the states.
