The city lights are beckoning
Their sirens softly call
All the fantasists and fetishist
Are preparing for 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The tenderness I felt has been replaced
By something new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 my 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
The lyrics MEMOIR of CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG is also present in the album Stage whisper (2011)
Charlotte Gainsbourg (nata Charlotte Lucy Gainsbourg il 21 luglio 1961) è una cantautrice, attrice e modella franco-britannica. Figlia del celebre cantautore francese Serge Gainsbourg e dell'attrice britannica Jane Birkin, ha ereditato la passione per l'arte da entrambi i genitori. Dopo aver iniziato come modella negli anni '80, si è dedicata alla musica con il suo album di debutto "Lemon Tango" (1999). Il suo stile musicale è caratterizzato da un mix di pop, elettronica e chanson francese, spesso accompagnato da testi introspettivi e poetici. Tra i suoi album più noti figurano "5:55" (2006), con il singolo "Heaven", e "IRM" (2012). Oltre alla musica, Gainsbourg ha recitato in numerosi film francesi e internazionali, collaborando con registi come Lars von Trier, Claire Denis e Bertrand Tavernier. La sua carriera è stata segnata da un'immagine artistica provocatoria e una forte personalità che l'hanno resa una figura iconica della cultura francese contemporanea.
