    There's some really beautiful moments here: when the hands spin across the screen as she says "I lost his hand in the current", when the bridge comes and the snare pops just so, and again when the instruments die off for the final chorus and she sings so lovely. This music is so heartfelt it's dug its way into my heart.

    I just love that the last line in this song is “and now I am left burning through the trees”, and then the first line of Party Police (the next song on the album) is “walking through the trees”. Who knows if it was intentional, but I thought it was a nice touch to an already perfect album.

    The moment at 1:05 for music, lyrics, and visuals is so perfect. It hits me with a tidal wave of emotions every time. To me it's about losing one's path in life and not a lost love. I lost myself, it was the life I loved, and now I'm left trying to put it back together.

    Man this song is so magical. The instrumental is as gorgeous as always, so are Molly's vocals (to a point where both almost synchronize in an infinitely satisfying way) and all of that is pulled together by the whiplash of the lyrics painting an atmosphere of absolute tragedy.
    A masterpiece. Love Alvvays.

    We walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
    I caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
    You took something before you went in the shower
    To help suppress the things that make you feel uptight
    And if I had known you couldn't swim
    We'd never have gone in
    I left my love in the river
    The only one who sees
    I lost his hand in the current
    It was the life I wanted and I'd hoped for
    And now I am left sifting through the leaves
    The sun's so hard I saw his skin through his t-shirt
    The grass so tall we knew he wouldn't be found
    We climbed into the stream so no one would be hurt
    And in no time at all there wasn't a sound
    If I had known you couldn't swim
    We'd never have gone in

    It was the life I wanted and I'd hoped for
    And now I am left sifting through the leaves
    No colour to his skin
    Inform the next of kin
    No colour to his skin
    I left my love in the river
    The only one I see
    I left his hand in the current

    The grass so tall, we knew we wouldn’t be found
    とても固い彼の腕、Tシャツが透けて彼の肌が見えた
    背の高い草、誰にも見つからないって2人とも思った
    We climbed into the stream so no one would be heard
    And in no time at all, there wasn’t a sound

    I was lucky to watch this awesome band in Victoria BC in I think 2018 and got to meet almost every member after the show! They are all wonderful people and even went out of their way to sign things for myself and friends. Hope to see them again and say thanks for the amazing melodies.

    No entendia mucho el ingles pero pensaba de que la cancion hacia referencia a que habia terminado una relacion con su pareja y en la cancion lo estaba recordando sentada junto a unos arboles. Luego me entere de lo que le paso y encontre la letra subtitulada y correctamente interpretada, entonces todo cobro sentido, me quede impactado de lo maravilloso que Alvvays convierte el sentimiento de nostalgia en una musica con ritmo y asi cambia la forma de ver la tragedia que sufrio con su padre. Me encanto el grito del final junto con todo el video, me hace llorar. Grande Alvvays.

    @ステーキの少年 5 лет назад +4

    Brilliant song! The meaning about the song by me is likely a coward love when the romantic part it's no for both. She looks to give all her love but he don't and that's why she touches on ''And if I had known you couldn't swim
    We'd never have gone in'', then ''I left my love in the river, The only one who sees, I lost his hand in the current, It was the life I wanted and I'd hoped for''.However, this has never been stated in interviews and Molly herself contends in NME that the lyrics stem from her isolated Nova Scotian upbringing.
