The Postal Service - Such Great Heights



Mr. - 零時起哄

The new Coca-cola commercial song.

I used to think finally there's some talented musician in Hong Kong... but little did I know, this song got a 'twin brother'.



The Postal Service - Such Great Heights

Coincidence? Maybe not...

"I am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned

And I have to speculate
that God himself did make us into corresponding shapes
like puzzle pieces from the clay

True, it may seem like a stretch,
but its thoughts like this that catch my troubled head
when you're away when I am missing you to death

When you are out there on the road
for several weeks of shows
and when you scan The radio,
I hope this song will guide you home

They won't see us waving from such great heights,
'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your machine
but the persistent beat it sounded thin upon listening

That frankly will not fly
you will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows
with the windows down when this is guiding you home

They won't see us waving from such great heights,
'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay..."
