LEAVING PARIS I'm leaving Paris Once again With my bag half-packed No turning back My goodbye penned I'm pressing 'Send' How many ways Can a story be told? Truth is bought And sold I'm leaving Paris For the third time The future's mine I'm sipping Chablis You without me Delayed at Orly With my heart in hand With this hurt unplanned We're taking off now I'm remembering Your smile The way you beguile The reason escapes me why I'm leaving Paris For a third time The future's mine How many ways Can a story be told? So I'm leaving Paris I hear the sound of my feet Down the stairs to the street Where the taxi is waiting And the melancholy rain Is synchronized with the pain And the sound of my heart Beating in the dark And everything that was And everything that will be And the rhythm of this song Moving me along Everything I've done All I didn't do And the words I never said to you All the words I never said to you I'm leaving Paris © 2016 Vanessa Daou

about

‘Leaving Paris’ is the haunting collaboration between electronic jazz-pop chanteuse Vanessa Daou and experimental electronic / IDM composer James Willard (aka Brokenkites). Inspired by author Collin Kelley’s novel ‘Leaving Paris’ (Part Three of ‘The Venus Trilogy’), the meditative torch-song conveys a sense of longing and romantic nostalgia for the eternal City of Lights. Daou’s bare lithe vocals and intimate poetic lyrics hover seductively over Brokenkites ambient electronic textures which coalesce into a delicate melodic epiphany that’s both hedonistic and transcendent.
