Jens Lekman - Maple Leaves

You are Welcome to rate my vid . Lyrics

It's autumn in Gothenburg
I'm walking home to my suburb
Rain falls hard on the city
on every homeless kitty

Oh please god bring relief
even if it's only brief
that she says the dreamer just make-believe
but I thought she said maple leaves

So we talked for hours
and you cried into my sheets
you said you hated your body
that it was just a piece of meat, I disagreed

I think you're beautiful
but it's impossible
to make you understand
that if you don't take my hand
I lose my mind completely
Madness will finally defeat me

She said it was all make-belief
but I thought you said maple leaves
and when she talked about the fall
I thought she talked about the season
I never understood at all

I thought she said maple leaves
and when she talked about about the fall
I thought she talked about Mark E Smith
I never understood at all
I never understood at all
I never understood at all

[Sm3gH3adx]

he deserves so much more attention, its a shame how many people are missing out on him

[timzers7447]

I love this song so much

[jergenx]

this sounds like the kind of music morrissey SHOULD be making these days. amazing song.

[awombat1]

Jens is a huge talent. I can't think of a single song of his that I dislike.

[Pandemoniumization]

she said it was all make believe

but I thought she said maple leaves

and when she talked about a fall

I thought she talked about a season

and when she talked about a fall

I thought she talked about Mark E Smith

[Kojak7snap]

He really gets good mileage out of that 40's girly "oooo" sample melody. It's on three of his songs that I know of, and my discography is far from complete.

[jleron]

Secretly my favorite song for about 6 years. I'm like a moth to a flame.

[Tixler]

This song makes even the worst days just a little better.

@floorpuddle by getting it blown out or Americanizing this Swedish pop star, look what happened to Morrissey

@johnoXdamage

Since you replied to MiKe Barker with Aaron Johnson. I might as well finish this off...Morgan Smith!
