leaving so soon

under the iron sea albümünden harika ötesi bir keane şarkısı.

under the iron sea'nin en iyilerinden. Başlıkta olamasa da orijinal adında sonunda bir de soru işareti var.
Şarkıdaysa adı da üstünde daha bir şey olamadan gidene laflarını sıralıyor tom chaplin reis. Bir otur soluklan diyor. anlıyoruz ki karşıdaki kadar kendisine aç kapa yapamıyor düşünce, his konusunda. Ama en sonunda "istemiyorsan ben de seni istemiyorum" diyor. Her şey güzel de tokat lafı pek uymamış tabii. Onu da mecazen düşünelim. yaptıklarını tokat gibi yüzüne çarpıyor diyelim.* sözleri de şu şekil;

Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!

You must think I'm a fool
So prosaic and awkward and all
D'you think you've got me down?
D'you think I've never been out of this town?

Do I seem too eager to please to you now?
You don't know me at all
I can't turn it on, turn it off like you now
I'm not like you now

Now you're here
I bet you're wishing you could disappear
I'm trying to be kind
I get the feeling you're just killing time

You look down on me
Don't you look down on me now
You don't know me at all
A slap in the face
In the face for you now
Just might do now

You're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
I don't need you

Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!

Leaving so soon, soon
Leaving, leaving so, soon

You're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
Then I don't need you

Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
