lyrics

I should have been an architect
dreaming of construction, upon my deck, step by step
I should have built a house of my desire
with walls of glass and golden spire
I should have been an architect

But I’ve built my life more carelessely
Listening to the best of Chet Baker
I ‘ll make it last forever
Listening to the best of Chet Baker

I should have built a palace in the sky
and lain on a balcony of stars
making love until the day I die
on a king-sized bed of fiery meteors

I would have seen the man who’s dancing on the moon
My lover once but he lost the tune

I’ve built my life more carelessely
Listening to Chet Baker
LIstening to Chet Baker

I should have been many other things
like a church bell ringer
A jet set swinger, a flower smeller, a carol singer
But I will sing, NON je ne regrette rien
Non je ne regrette rien
Listening to the best of Chet Baker

about

Hovering somewhere between indie pop and the French chanson, the mysterious voice of Watine lays bare her dreams and her melancholy, spiriting us away into a personal universe filled with poetry.
