THE CARDIGANS

Losers
Look at all these losers,
You find them everywhere
They’re fucked up and annoying
But somehow you seem to care
It’s easier to laugh
But something makes you stick around
You can’t watch from above
And keep your ten toes in the sand
 
You wish that you were special
I’m just like you
 
Close your eyes,
That will be the day you’ll find those lies
Fold your ears,
That will be the day that you will hear
That will be the day you
get back home
 
It’s lonely to be strange
And you would never tell
That you’re one of these itches
You know it much too well
Losers are your weakness
They will always touch your heart
You’re touching me as well
‘Cause I have always been a part
 
You wish that you were special
I’m just like you
You’re just like me
We’re just like them
They’re just like us...
 
(chorus)

 

Lovefool
 
Dear, I fear we're facing a problem
you love me no longer, I know
and maybe there is nothing that I can do
to make you do

Mama tells me I shouldn't bother
that I ought to stick to another man
a man that surely deserves me
but I think you do!
So I cry, I pray and I beg ...

Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
So I cry, and I beg for you to ...
Love me love me
say that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you...

Lately I have desperately pondered,
spent my nights awake and I wonder
what I could have done in another way
to make you stay

Reason will not lead to solution
I will end up lost in confusion
I don't care if you really care
as long as you don't go
So I cry, I pray and I beg ...
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
So I cry, and I beg for you to ...
Love me love me
say that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you
Anything but you
Love me, love me Say that you love me
Fool me, fool me Go on and fool me
Love me love me You know that you need me
I can't care about anything but you!

 

My favorite game
 
I don't know what you're looking for
you haven't found it baby, that's for sure
You rip me up and spread me all around
in the dust of the deed of time

And this is not a case of lust, you see
it's not a matter of you versus of me
It's fine the way you want me on your own
but in the end it's always me alone

And I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my baby
losing my favourite game
 
I only know what I've been working for
another you so I could love you more
I really thought that I could take you there
but my experiment is not getting us anywhere

I had a vision I could turn you right
a stupid mission and a lethal fight
I should have seen it when my hope was new
my heart is black and my body is blue

And I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my favourite game
I've tried but you're still the same
I'm losing my baby
you're losing a saviour and a saint

 

Erase/Rewind
 
Ney, what did you hear me say
You know the difference it makes
What did you hear me say
 
Yes, I said it’s fine before
But I don’t think so no more
I said it’s fine before
I’ve changed my mind
I take it back
Erase and rewind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
Erase and rewind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
 
So where did you see me go
It’s not the right way, you know
Where did you see me go
 
No, it’s not that I don’t know
I’ve changed my mind
I take it back
Erase and rewind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
Erase and rewind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
Erase and rewind
‘cause I’ve been changing my mind
Erase and rewind.
I've changed my mind
