about
For Geoffrey. As it turns out, we did follow each other into ‘the mystery of why we are lovers’. The original film clip was made on one of those old bubble macs, salvaged from Juice Magazine, from films of pages of art books. Pretty primitive animation back then, but revamped here
lyrics
Follow you follow me Round and round the mystery of
why we are lovers
Drive me home in your car
Play me on your blue guitar
Take my hand I'll go with you
anywhere you want me to
Follow you follow me
Round and round the mystery of
Why we are lovers
And I will make you angel wings
And chain your mail with golden rings
Setting sail for foreign lands
Of harvest moons and caravans
You'll find inside a garden grown
where every tenderness is sown
and every beauty seems the same as
every other every day
follow you follow me
round the round the mystery of
Why we are lovers
and paradise is when your are
playing me on your blue guitar.
