Jens Lekman

Jens Martin Lekman (pronounced Yens; born 6 February 1981) is a Swedish musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings, with lyrics that are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. The English lyrics reflect an advanced knowledge of the language and its idioms. His work is heavily influenced by that of Jonathan Richman and Belle & Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt (of The Magnetic Fields), David Byrne, and Scott Walker. more »

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
