lyrics

Once it was easy for me,
To wear my heart,
So innocently,
On my sleeve.
But 'tis easy to wear,
Your heart on your sleeve,
When you've left all your clothes,
On the floor.

Ignorant to my nakedness,
I paraded around.
My reflection but a shadow,
I was facing on the ground.
Or a ripple in the water,
No time to compare,
To others around me,
Be them plain or fair.

I remember so vividly
the day that fear arrived.
Handed down inside a mirror,
By a lover afraid of pride.
And it fueled like a fire,
When the glass hit sunlight.
Realising my nakedness,
I ran and hid from sight.

Now I carry my fear,
Like a jacket in the sun.
Just in case it rains,
Oh what a clever burden.

And I carry my fear,
Like a jacket in the sun.
Just in case it rains,
Oh what a clever burden.

And I carry my fear
Like a jacket in the sun.
Just in case it rains,
Oh what a clever burden.

And I carry my fear
Like a jacket in the sun.
Just in case it rains,
Oh what a clever burden,
What a clever burden to bear.

Lemoncello Dublin, Ireland

Lemoncello charm audiences into an enigmatic world of intimate observations and uncomfortable questions with irresistible charisma, chemistry and humour. At once minimal and dramatic, their soundscape of cutting vocals, gritty cello and cyclical guitar is embedded in Irish roots and entwined in love of off-kilter pop, romantic & contemporary classical music and jazz extemporisation. ... more
