THE SWELL SEASON: IF YOU WANT ME.


One of my favourite movies of all times is "Once". In that film, we discovered to THE SWELL SEASON, a magnificent duet formed by Glenn Hansard -An old friend from "The Frames"- and the incredible Marketa Irglova. I've just to see the movie again, and I want to remember one of the songs sung by Irglova. IF YOU WANT ME. Hope you like.





If You Want Me by Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová on Grooveshark


LYRICS

Are you really here or am I dreaming
I can’t tell dreams from truth
for it’s been so long since I have seen you
I can hardly remember your face anymore

When I get really lonely
and the distance causes only silence
I think of you smiling
with pride in your eyes a lover that sighs

If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me
If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me

Are you really sure that you’d believe me
when others say I lie
I wonder if you could ever despise me
when you know I really try
to be a better one to satisfy you
For you’re everything to me
and I’ll do what you ask me
if you’ll let me be, free

If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me
If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me
If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me

THE SWELL SEASON: IN THESE ARMS.


We Cannot forget "Once" (2007) The film that joined Glenn Handsard and Marketa Irglova. Although they had recorded a previous album which they called THE SWELL SEASON. Today we have chosen IN THESE ARMS that belongs to the last album "Strict Joy" (2010). Hope you like.



LYRICS

Use the truth
As a weapon
To beat up all your friends
Every chink in the armor
An excuse to cause offense
And the boys from the hallway
Calling out your name
And you love
Find them in the end
You are restles
I was somewhere less secure
So I went running to the row
And so now that the longest of places I was
I quit my rambling and come home
'Cause maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

x2

And your saints
And your mantra
And you.... To keep you calm
If you stay
With that asshole
Is gonna do you harm
As the voice singing loudly on the radio

Just for you
And good fortune
Will find him in the end
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
