The second track on Beach House’s seventh LP is a slow ballad that seems to deal with a ceasing relationship.
Victoria Legrand said this song is a signature moment of their new collaborator Peter Kember, a.k.a. Sonic Boom, who worked on the production of this album:
That comet sounds that happens....
[Verse 1]
Pay no mind, it takes time
What's that you say?
Down the hall, I heard a song
Who knows, drifting away
[Chorus]
Baby at night when I look at you
Nothing in this world keeps me confused
All it takes, look in your eyes
[Verse 2]
All of me is to tow the waste
What's that you say, it's going away?
It's painful but you do what you must
Takes time to know
[Chorus]
Baby at night when I look at you
Nothing in this world keeps me confused
All it takes, look in your eyes
[Outro]
Who knows if there're roses in heaven
Let go of that empty feeling
Not dumber just a little bit older
Kiss of love couldn't be much colder
