Aquamarine (feat. Club C​é​lest)

by Hank Midnight

/
1.
Aquamarine is the color I dream in when I dream of you. Where have the weekends gone with the years? And there's all we still have gotta do! I'd love to take a stroll with you To try to get the final emerald ray again To capture it and screen it on your rose projector Maybe you could teach me how to lose my frame again... No machines sing like morning birds or butterflies seem to when they flutter into view. The jury's not out anymore, we're obviously crazy— from opposite ends of the world, like cacti and daisy fields. I'd love to take a stroll with you To try to get the final emerald ray again To capture it and screen it on your rose projector Maybe you could teach me how to lose my frame again...

And You 03:45
Paint me a champagne sky Drink the moonlight Broke down but the radio still plays The joy songs of summer love A glass is a slow moving substance This view ain't quite the same As it was when your grandfather looked out The kitchen window as she came down the lane Maybe summer songs Age like kitchen glass does Don't sound quite the same after some years But tonight There's a champagne sky Moonlight And You (moonlight) (And you)

and race home and not be alone and watch the golden moment as it is and she wants to conjure all of you like the reptile you are I am she whispers and takes his hand in this world of amphibians where every word's left broken as an eggshell let's be infidels damned as animist believers who worship the trees and the rivers who dance round the flame as it flickers out in the rain don't worry your mind though the bells be ringin' sing out for the river river river song

about

I wrote this song for Chloé Mossessian. It features one of her dearest childhood friends, singer/songwriter Céline Boudier (Club Célest), whose work in co-producing this one made it cooler by osmosis. If the song resonates with you, share it with just one friend. :-)

With love,
Hank

Lyrics:

Aquamarine is the color I dream in
when I dream of you.
Where have the weekends
gone with the years?
And there's all we still
have gotta do!

I'd love to take a stroll with you
To try to get the final emerald ray again
To capture it and screen it on your rose projector
Maybe you could teach me how to lose my frame again...

No machines sing like morning birds
or butterflies seem to
when they flutter into view.
The jury's not out anymore,
we're obviously crazy—
from opposite ends of the world,
like cacti and daisy fields.

I'd love to take a stroll with you
To try to get the final emerald ray again
To capture it and screen it on your rose projector
Maybe you could teach me how to lose my frame again...
