The Blower's Daughter

Damien Rice

2002

And so it is

Just like you said it would be

Life goes easy on me

Most of the time

The shorter story

No love, no glory

No hero in her sky


I can't take my eyes off of you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes off of you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes...


And so it is

Just like you said it should be

We'll both forget the breeze

Most of the time

The colder water

The blower’s daughter

The pupil in denial


I can't take my eyes off of you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes off of you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes off you

I can't take my eyes...


Did I say that I loathe you?

Did I say that I want to

Leave it all behind?


I can't take my mind off of you

I can't take my mind off you

I can't take my mind off of you

I can't take my mind off you

I can't take my mind off you

I can't take my mind...

... until I find somebody new

Spjallað við ChatGPT um lagið

„The Blower’s Daughter“ eftir Damien Rice er djúpt tilfinningalegt lag af plötunni O frá 2002, þekkt fyrir grípandi melódíu sína og djúpstæð orð. Lagið rannsakar ást, ástarsorg og óleystar þrá.

Titill lagsins, sem vísar ekki beint til tónlistarkennara og dóttur hans, er dreginn af írsku slangri fyrir koss. Orðin tjá flókið samband fortíðarinnar með línum eins og „Ég get ekki tekið augun af þér,“ sem undirstrika erfiðleikana við að komast yfir mikilvæga ást. Einföld uppsetningin, með píanó og strengjum, eykur sorgmædda stemmninguna og skapar öflugt andrúmsloft.
