Five seconds in your heart
Straight to your heart
I can't get to your heart
She said, five seconds in your heart
Straight to your heart
I can't get to your heart
Linking arms to the right time
Drop your head to please mine
Give her a sign
I don't believe in you
You don't believe in me
So how could you make me cry?
Sometimes I get a little too in-my-head about which songs to post on TMIS. Case in point, I've been sitting on this track by Dominican-American George Lewis, Jr (aka Twin Shadow) this whole time, waiting for a new release, or to decide on a song from his more recent album at least. But that's just silly when "Five Seconds" is a classic fave that deserves to be here. It really sounds like classic wave, too - love that melancholy chord over the chorus.
