Jens Lekman - What's That Perfume That You Wear? Тексты

What's that perfume that you wear?
It brings me back somewhere
To the anticipation
Before I kissed someone
It's got a sadness in it
Knowing how it's ended
Promise of something so sweet
That never could be


And it smells so good
That sandalwood
The lavender
Lemon ginger
But I guess I still love her
She's gone forever
However hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that


Got a miniature shampoo bottle on my shelf
From when we stayed at a hotel
One whiff of that and I'm back there with her
Coming out of the shower, she's standing there fixing her hair
She said, "Let's go somewhere"
I can smell her sun lotion
From the wind of the jasmine
And the salt from the ocean


And it smells so good
That sandalwood
The vetiver
Pink pepper
And I guess I still love her
She's gone forever
However hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that


(Over and over, over and over
Over and over, head up, head up, head up!
Over and over, over and over
Over and over, head up, head up, head up!)


It smells so good
That sandalwood
The lavender
Lemon ginger
But I guess I still love her
She's gone forever
However hard that might feel
At least it was real
If it could hurt like that
