Charlotte Gainsbourg - Memoir 歌詞

The city lights are beckoning
Their sirens softly call
All the fantacists and fetishist
Are preparing their ball
We've been stuck here on the doorstep
with nothing to forsake
But we might as well be anyone's to take

So, I give myself to strangers
Like I gave myself to you
The tenderness I felt has been replaced
By something new
And in the end I can vaguely hear an outline of your call
But I may as well be any words at all

Every memory is sailing to the kingdom of your soul
As you patiently await, I lose all sense of self-control
For you were the lighthouse to my broken boat
But I left you behind
Now I might as well
Be anyone's to find

Take my body
Take it from me
It is not worthy of your memory

I remember you undressing as I sat myself on fire
And the funeral was quick as I lay lifeless on your pyre
Well it's a kind of desperation
And it's just something you can't fake
Oh I might as well be anyone's to take

So I give myself to strangers
Like I gave myself to you
But the unity I felt
Has been replaced by something new
Now I am Helen, I am Mary jane
I am Robert, I am Paul
Oh I might as well be anyone at all
Yes I might as well be anyone at all
Well I might as well be anyone at all
Oh I might as well be anyone at all
