Jens Lekman - Eureka lyrics

there are many reasons for blushing

I know every single one

and the reason why my face is red

is not of sickness nor of sun

it's cause I'm thinking

I'm thinking of her

'cause everytime I do I drive into the ditch and

burst out in a song like Jonathan Richman

it's magic, but at the same time it's physically dangerous

don't know where I'm going with this

don't know why I started in the first place

all I know is I need a solution

'cause I'm dying

I'm dying it's a slow execution

Eureka, I'm gonna get myself a loudspeaker

I'm gonna stand out in the street and sing to her

I'm gonna tell her exactly how much I love her

a wild ocean, she's like a wild wild ocean

I know I'm pretentious but it's something 'bout emotion

when she sends her wild waves to me

"well I'm kind of shy", that's an understatement

I probably say a word or two every year and

sometimes when I'm with good friends

I unzip

my lips and I say

how in the world could I impress her

is there a scientific proven gesture

my friends says "jens, you're not a professor,

you just gotta tell her that you're dying to kiss her"

Eureka, I'm gonna get myself a loudspeaker

I'm gonna stand out in the street and sing to her

I'm gonna tell her exactly how much I love her

Eureka
