“Darling” is the second song off of Austrian Singer-songwriter AVEC’s debut album What If We Never Forget.
When asked what the song was about, AVEC answered (loosely translated from German):
Yeah, the song is about love […]. It’s really, really sweet love. So if you just can’t get a person out of...
[Verse 1]
We're running and running in the streets
Into the night
The circles are bigger than the love we can fight
And the faces in the middle of the spotlight
Are the creeps in the mirrors behind our eyes?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh…
Oh…
[Chorus]
And darling, you're killing me in my sleep
Oh no, I said darling
You wanna feel the heat?
Oh and darling, darling
No, you're turning around and around and it's deep
I said, darling
Do you still believe it?
[Verse 2]
And two of us, two of us
Into the light
Both all alone and then, one too high
But you said: "I love you"
"I love you", is this good enough?
But my words teach you still, not to lie
Not to lie, oh no, no
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh…
Oh…
[Chorus]
And darling you're killing me in my sleep
Oh no, I said darling
You wanna feel the heat?
And darling, darling
No, you're turning around and around and it's deep
I said, darling
Do you still believe it?
[Outro]
Oh no, and darling
Do you still believe?
Oh and darling
Don't let me go to sleep
Oh, and darling
Do you still believe?
And darling
Now let me go to sleep
