about

Casanovas is a song about celebrity stalkers, told fro the perspective of a celebrity stalker. Woah, man.

lyrics

Grass-stained jeans, ruby necklace on my TV screen, or in my papers
I had never seen
something like you
Every breath you drew
filled my magazines and all the
folk you knew said from limousines that soon you’d be
on top of the world
sequin skirt, dressed to masquerade in matched your silver shirt used to hide your delicate frame
and all the crooning caws crowed by casanovas
kept your worried thoughts soft and gently hidden away
you were on top of the world on top of the world
but how I knew
It wasn’t true
I watched you every night, filmed by passers by
to your private drive
living in the heights alone so alone
and how at 10PM you’d fill your favourite glass through my camera lens
i saw you weep again and again
i knew i could make it right
if only you could see the signs i see you each and every night i know i could make it right
but you’re on top of the world
