D-pop lyrics
belmondo

Belmondo is the darrenpop musical idea. On this page you can find the lyrics to many of the songs that I'm getting ready.

How will it sound ? "Warped Sunshine Pop", I like to call it. Kind of .. Saint Etienne meets Pale Fountains meets Beck meets Dubstar meets T.Rex meets Spearmint meets Ben Watt meets New Order ..

more when there's more to say.
Hopefully the soon-come launch of Fantasma, the darrenpop club night in London, will shed some light ..

What Do You Want
What's The Matter Now
Headband Girl
Wouldn't Want To See You Now
All I Want To Have Is You
There Is A Star


What Do You Want ?

Do you want me to be strong or is it better if I'm weak
Does it make the slightest difference how I move or how I speak
Do you want me to embrace you with a passion hot and red
Do you want to tie me to a post and chain me to your bed
Do you want to be the woman or do you want to be the man
Do you want me to imagine that you're really from Japan
Do you want me to surround you with the love of Valentino
Do you want this love to be a thing unique that only we know
Do you want me to be jealous every time you speak of others
Do you want me to believe that you are always looking for new lovers
Do you want to hear me talk about my chequered sexual history
Or do you want our lives outside each other to be a mystery
Do you want to understand the reasons why I need to know you love me
Does it matter why I often feel so insecure about it

I only want to know one thing
What do you want from you and me
I need to know for my insecurity
Before it takes over me

Do you want me to be like someone that you once were obsessed by
Or listen to how I match up against those you've been caressed by
Do you want me to get angry if you think it turns you on
Do you want me to be indifferent, or miss you when you're gone
Do you want me to be just the same as the very first day we met
Do you want me to be someone that you'll never want to forget
Do you want me to arouse you in ways you thought I could never
Or touch you deep in places where it seems to last forever
Do you want me to look deep inside your eyes and stare in silence
Do you want to touch the point where tenderness meets violence
Do you want me to be strong enough to make you lose control
Do you want me to enter all the way to your body and your soul
Do you want me to write songs and dedicate them to your heart
Do you want to act a fantasy with us in all the parts

Do you want me to be thinking about you even when it's hurting
Do you want me to smile benignly when you tell me how you've been flirting
Do you want to hear the whispered words of romance as we kiss
Do you want to be transported on a sea of foolish bliss
Do you want me to be someone who admires you from afar
Do you want us to make love in the back of someone's car
Do you want to make me hypnotised and incapable of speech
Do you want me to be words on paper safely out of reach
Do you want the way you really feel to remain undetected
Are you scared you might just like me more than you had first expected


What do I want
I really couldn't say
But what I really want is you
To lose yourself in me
And to know
For however long it is
That we could go beyond it all
Weightlessly suspended in time


Ninety Second Sigh

You must be aware you can only say no for so long
So how I can I express myself without getting it all wrong
The time will surely arrive
When everything in your life
Suddenly comes together like a wave in a sea of calm

And then you'll realise
When you look deep into my eyes
When your world stops turning
You know there won't be any holding back the feeling

So how can I express myself ?
Without me knowing if you really want me
And how can I defend my feelings ?
Even if I suspect you love me


Effortless

You surely must be aware of your talents
And how all us mortals go weak at the knees
Your poise and position, your wonderful balance
The way that you do anything that you please

If effort could be measured by trying
You'd understand me, faults and everything
I'm tired of losing this race against time
I'm all hung up with these hang ups of mine

Days and nights, they come and go
Breathless I watch you, surely you know
The leading lady of a thousand dreams
Is making the world explode

Effortless, how do you do it ?
It must be a gift you were born with
And all I really want from you
Is to crack a little, yes I do



Don't You Think It's Time

Don't you think it's time
You made up your mind before I make up mine
My versions of stories you don't want to hear
The ones that you thought I had covered with tears
Then I just might disappear

Don't you think it's time
I stopped this pretence that I'm feeling just fine
I called for last orders with you at the bar
Don't think you can jump in your getaway car
You know you won't get very far

I'm tired of all of your petty excuses
Try thinking of some not just anyone uses
I'd walk out on you but it'd be too dramatic
There's too many toys in the attic

Don't you think it's time
This masquerade stopped while I've still got my mind
The days we enjoyed are no longer good times
I've spent far too long behind enemy lines
So don't you think it's time
Leave the sorrow behind
Capture all that is mine
Oh don't you think it's time


Fascination

All the world knows about us, baby
You can't change the history books
You can only have so much of what makes you happy

But there's a knot inside my heart that pulls a little tighter
Every time I contemplate what we had
I'd be a fool to just dismiss the thought of you from my mind
Especially as I know you understand
These trials of fascination we demand

I could follow in your footsteps
And I would, given half a chance
All my reasoning tends to escape me at moments like these

But there's a heart in me that beats a little faster
When I hear your sweet sweet voice
I'd be a fool just to try and forget that we ever existed like we did
Especially as I know you understand
These trials of fascination we demand


Timeless Starlight

When you're all alone at night, think of me
Just look up at the stars
Whichever one you gaze at, baby
I'll be looking at it too

If you close your eyes, and think of me
I'll be there inside your mind
It doesn't matter where you are
I'm not so hard to find

Timeless starlight
You are my everything
You mean the world to me
When I look into your eyes

Chasing

I'm so tired of chasing
Of trying to fall in with others
Of thinking of my lovers
Of waiting on everybody
Of fearing being lonely

And as I'm getting older
I'm losing all my patience
I'm scared of what I'm wasting
My very own mindfuck
But that's just how I'm feeling

It's so tiring
Driving yourself crazy
At the world you see around you
As the people inside it see you
You smug self-centred bastard

I'm so tired of chasing
Of trying to fall in with others
Of thinking of my lovers
Of waiting on everybody
Of fearing being lonely


Blue

Slight or not slight, invisible laughter
Whispery spaces, learning to live again
Rolling towards the light
Tangles in the air
Walk again, breathe again

Too much, too soon
Blue like the moon

Joy and despair, under the surface
The ups and downs of serious danger
Best thing in the world, happens everywhere
Talk again, live again

Too much, too soon
Blue like the moon


smile

I'd walk a hundred miles
To be with you when you smile
x2

Doesn't it seem strange
The eagerness
The way I cherish each time we caress
The finer things in life lose their way
When you turn to me and say
I'd walk...

Just to see your happy face
Makes the darkest days seem so worthwhile
Hearing all the perfect words you say
Brings the light into my day

I'd walk...




You Will Always Be An Angel

I dreamed that you walked into my room last night
We took each other's hand and swore we'd put the world to right
I promised I would be there when you needed me
If time could be frozen then, you know it would be

There never was a brighter star in your eye
Than that which shone in that starry sky
I'm helplessly in wonder, in awe of you

You will always be an angel
The only star left in the sky
You will always remain special
I'll meet you at the golden gates one day

All the stars that shine above us
Mean the same to star crossed lovers
Chasing rainbows in a foreign field
Close your eyes and you can see me

You will always be an angel
The only star left in the sky
You will always remain special
I'll meet you at the golden gates one day


Vanilla Boyfriend

Well I may be sweet, and I'm quite complete
From my strawberry hair to my cute cute feet

A boy with a heart that's made of gold
A girl with eyes that can smile
You took me for a ride
Staying out to see the sunrise light

I may be sweet
But I'm not your vanilla boyfriend

Well I might seem cute, and I know what to do
When I open my mouth to get next to you

I've had better times than these, you know
But I'm not really all that bothered
If we never speak again, well it's all right
I'm bruised, but I'm not blistered
Bitter but not twisted

I may be sweet
But I'm not your vanilla boyfriend


All I Want To Have Is You

Thought I could cope when I lost your love babe
Thought everything would be oh so easy
I didn't know that I'd miss you so much
I didn't know I'd be hurting such, oh

Maybe the things that we said were foolish
Falling apart without even knowing why
If that's the way it must be
Something is wrong and I need you back now

It's not easy
Trying to show I'm sorry baby but
I'm so lonely here without you
All I want to have is you
All I want to have is you

Time and again I try to see you
Finding a way to climb back into your life
I need you to be beside me
Together again for the rest of time



What's The Matter Now

I think about you more than I should
But it's hardly an obsession
You're occupying a lot of my time
Even though you're somewhere else
We talk for hours, I think for days
I don't know what I should say
And when I want to know your feelings
All I hear you say is

What's the matter now
Is it something I said
God your skin is far too thin for me
Why've you gone so quiet
Is it clear enough now
What the hell did you expect to hear

I like to think you know what I mean
When I open up my feelings
It's hard to know what I want to say
Though it's all up there somewhere
I walk for hours, I wait for days
I don't know just what to think
And when I want a vote of confidence
The words I get are

What's ......



Wouldn't Want To See You Now

Freezing cold weather and droplets of rain
Remind me of you and a diary of pain
I held a piece of heaven and wanted more
But I never quite knew the score

But I've changed
Now I'm stronger
I don't want to waste time any longer
And I wouldn't want to see you now
I wouldn't want to see you now

A has been before I had even been had
The only good times were the ones that weren't bad
Yet even when my faith was stretched to the limit
I always kept open the door

But I've..

When you were all I wanted
I was blinded by my heart
But I can't rely on something
That meant nothing from the start

(Chorus repeat)





Headband Girl

Here she comes again
Walking on clouds of steps
Wondering what she'll do next
I have never felt so possessed
Like the way I am today

You're a joy to behold
Blowing hot and cold
Headband girl, don't change
Would I ever see your like again
Headband girl, so strange
I want to carve your name in stone forever

It was all too plain to see
You were always far too good for me
And we called you the headband girl
'Cause you had no name to the rest of the world
But to me you looked divine as the sky

I cannot concentrate
When I see your face
And the way you move with effortless grace
I have never felt possessed
Like the way I am today


Just A Girl

Perhaps it's the way that you're looking at me
That can make me behave so appealing
Can't you tell there's something on my mind
More than that which I'm used to feeling

And I've been trying hard to tell you
You were always more than just a girl
And I've been caught like I was before
And it feels so good

In a thousand ways I've been lost without trace
With a knack for the wrong decisions
I need just one plan to help me understand
To put me in the right position


There Is A Star

Have you ever wondered why
Have you ever felt so much like giving up
When all around you crumbles into broken hopes and dreams

Have you ever wondered how
Have you ever seen the light that shines between us
Two of a kind taking all the blows from this world

Oh but there is a star
For you and me alone
There is a star
That we can pin our dreams on to
There is a star
For you and me alone
There is a star

Does the morning pass you by
Do you wake when all the people scurry round and round
I'll be there to make you thankful you're alive you know

Does the world just get you down
Do you wonder if you'll ever make it all see sense
Looking at the glorious mess that you've made

But there is a star
For you and me alone
There is a star
That we can pin our dreams on to
There is a star
There is a star
