Destroyer - Chinatown

Copied!

{Verse 1}
You can’t believe
The way the wind’s talking to the sea
I heard that someone said it before, I don’t care
I can’t walk away, I can’t walk away
In Chinatown

{Verse 2}
The wind and the rain
To your detriment, you try to explain
A government swallowed up in the squall
I can’t walk away, at all
In Chinatown

{Verse 3}
You can’t believe
Though I’m sure somebody’s said it before:
I know you and I know the score
I can’t walk away, you can’t walk away
I can’t walk away, you can’t walk away
I can’t walk away, you can’t walk away
I can’t walk away, you can’t walk away

{Outro}
I can’t walk away

Biography

edit bio

The brainchild of Canadian songwriter and wine lover Dan Bejar, also known as an occasional contributor to The New Pornographers and one-third of British Columbia supergroup Swan Lake.

Though each Destroyer album has its own, distinct sonic identity, from the MIDI-heavy Your Blues to the lounge jazz-pop of Kaputt, all feature dense lyrics entrenched in metaphors and labyrinths of references, intricate arrangements, and Bejar’s distinct voice.
