Jens Lekman

Jens Martin Lekman (pronounced Yens; born 6 February 1981) is a Swedish musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings, with lyrics that are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. The English lyrics reflect an advanced knowledge of the language and its idioms. His work is heavily influenced by that of Jonathan Richman and Belle & Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt (of The Magnetic Fields), David Byrne, and Scott Walker. more »

I am leaving you
Because I don't love you
I am leaving you
Because I don't love you

Well it's the knowledge,
It's the knowledge,
It's the knowledge
Of future clarity
That makes my voice tremble
With greater dignity

I am leaving you
Because I don't love you
I am leaving you
Because I don't love you

I'm sorry I have to be this
Brutally honest, Nicole
But my excuses were babies
Of snow that I just could not hold

So you pick up your asthma inhaler
And put it against your lips
And oh those lips I've loved
That I was dreaming of
They're so red and soft
I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
I'm so sorry that I'm leaving you
Because I don't love you
I am leaving you
Because I don't love you

So pick up your asthma inhaler
And put it against your lips
Oh, those lips I've loved that I was dreaming of
They're still red and soft
I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
So sorry I couldn't love you enough
