Description
I saw a French film starring Audrey Tautou called "À la folie...pas du tout." It was a study of a condition called erotomania, a condition in which the sufferer believes that another person, usually a stranger or celebrity, is secretly in love with them. I wanted to explore that myself. There are actually no instruments in this track that are not made with either my voice or my mouth.
Lyrics
Every single word you’ve ever said I’ve heard from here inside my little cell If I told you that I hadn’t always been here You would know the height of grace from which I fell And I don’t need a compass to find you I already know your every move And I don’t need a lonely ring to bind you My loving for you is manacle enough And I see you (here in my mind) (And you don’t) And I hear you (here in my mind) (And you don’t) Every other man you’ve ever had Could never satisfy or fill you up I’ve erased them all you didn’t need them – Didn’t want them. I’m the only one good enough. And I don’t need a compass to find you I already know your every move And I’m just a phantom to remind you What happens now that push has come to shove And I see you (here in my mind) (And you don’t) And I hear you (here in my mind) (And you don’t) I can see you But you can’t see me I can hear you But you can’t hear me I KNOW you But you don’t know me I love you I LOVE YOU.. And I know you (here in my mind) (And you don’t) And I love you (here in my mind) (And you don’t)
