The One 03:40
I want to paint a thousand flowers, I want to paint you nude I want to paint the assassination of every one of your moods And you are urging me on Finding me out I’m searching for the light But you’ll never let me go So why don’t you bow your head in shame? I want to find my true self I want to bend my knees I want to kiss the ground when you walk at my feet I want to be the fall out I want to be the one I want to be extraordinary But I’m so mixed up Cos I’m so in love with you Because you are the moment, when God forgot his plan Because you are the moment when I reach for what I am And you are turning me on Trying me out I’m searching for the light But you’ll never let me go So why don’t you bow your head in shame? I want to find my true self I want to bend my knees I want to kiss the ground when you walk at my feet I want to be the fall out I want to be the one I want to be extraordinary But I’m so mixed up Cos I’m so in love with you

Behind my eyes are all my thought Behind my clothes is all my skin Can I stay. With you. Can I call your cell phone come right up. Can I stay . With you. Will you lift me off my feet so I don’t touch the ground I don’t touch the ground. I whisper to a star. I tell you who you are Behind my mouth are all my words Behind my heart are all my hurt Can I stay. With you. Can I call your cell phone come right up. Can I stay . With you. Will you lift me off my feet so I don’t touch the ground I don’t touch the ground. I whisper to a star. I tell you who you are My home has forgotten me My man doesn’t know who I am My life is a fucked up thing My world has come crashing in But I feel alright My home has forgotten me My man doesn’t know who I am My life is a fucked up thing My world has come crashing in My world

Put your lips close to mine Can you feel what I’m feeling this time? I was lost now you’ve found me It’s the nature of what we can be Let your hair down to touch the ground That you walk in your sleep I have found This is not what I thought it was Face to face, it’s the lesson of love I wanna be outside your window I wanna be outside your door I wanna follow you everywhere you go This was not meant to hurt you This was not meant to be that way But I can’t pull myself together So will you mend, can you mend me whole I wanna be outside your window I wanna be outside your door I wanna follow you everywhere you go Will you take me with you everywhere you go Will you take me with you everywhere you go
4.
If mountains and rivers could talk they would cry If I knew what I was before I’d be wise I can’t hang around here all day, have to go now I think that you really love me though you don’t know Almost closed down I thought you’d gone away That sudden feeling, I want you to stay I’m trying not to stamp my feet but all I wanna do is be with you I don’t need to know why the earth spins round the sun But I want to know why my world has come un-done I never want to subtract myself from you So when can we be born again, be brand new Almost closed down I thought you’d gone away That sudden feeling, I want you to stay I’m trying not to stamp my feet but all I wanna do is be with you Travel in your mind, walk around your body, breathe at the same time, I’m trying not to stamp my feet but all I wanna do is be with you All I wanna do, It’s all I wanna do, All I wanna do, It’s all I wanna do
5.
Dare 03:24
I’m not sure if I should stay the night or go I don’t know what you’re thinking I’m not sure if I should stay or I should go now If I wait too long then weeds will grow beneath my feet We stare but we don’t dare do all the things we wanna do I’m reeling, screaming, inside out of you Will you please please me. Will you please me Will you call my name. Will you drive me insane Will you please please me. Will you please me We’re not born to survive, to just stay alive I want to write my world all over you There’s nothing of me that’s out of bounds, that is sacred ground And you can hold my future in your hands We stare but we don’t dare do all the things we wanna do, I’m reeling, screaming, inside out of you Will you please please me. Will you please me Will you call my name. Will you drive me insane Will you please please me. Will you please me And everyday I will live as though it’s my last Cos maybe it is today. Maybe it is tonight Who are we to know Will you please please me. Will you please me Will you call my name. Will you drive me insane Will you please please me. Will you please me Will you please please me. Will you please me Will you call my name. Will you drive me insane Will you please please me. Will you please me

Hotel 03:07
My body is your hotel, it’s on the 42nd floor Take the lift, I’m waiting inside for you, I’m hiding in your bedside drawer And I love the way you do And I love the way you do My body is your hotel, I hear you knocking on my door And I love the way you do And I love the way you do Cos I know that I am not beautiful And all you really want is a friend But I want to put my arms around you I want to touch my fingers to you I want to rest my head on your shoulders Cos you are my weakness My worst habit is you I want to put my arms around you, touch my fingers, rest my head, my worst habit is you. My body is your hotel, I feel you walking through my door And I love the way you do And I love the way you do

Save My Life 03:46
You don’t know me so don’t pretend you do You want something from me but I won’t give to you Pretend I’m dreaming, I’m walking on thin air Pretend I’m laughing like I don’t even care I don’t even care about the boys that shout The girls that brush their hair I don’t even care about the summer time The little things that drive me Can you save me from drowning? Can you save my life? What can I tell you that you do not know What can I think about to help me let you go I’m learning how to fall down,how to spin around and round I’m learning how to stand up to what is on my mind
8.
I’m creeping through your house but you don’t know, you don’t know I’m opening your door but you don’t know, you don’t know I’m crawling in your bed but you don’t know, you don’t know I’m disturbing everything but you don’t know It’s a wonderful night It’s a wonderful day It’s a wonderful life But this won’t go away I’m colouring the sky but you don’t know, you don’t know I’m casting my net wide but you don’t know, you don’t know I’m hurling into you, but you don’t know, you don’t know I love everything you do, but you don’t know And if you all I want I would ask you to hold my hand And count to three again It’s a wonderful night It’s a wonderful day It’s a wonderful life But this won’t go away
9.
Pale, it’s paler than I thought Morning, I’m waiting for the dawn It hurts, when you hold me in your arms Cos I know, our time is running out, time is running out But don’t go chasing after green grass Cos it’s not as good as what we had I want us to be how we were before I want us to start out over again Delete, the things that get you down Swallow, the thought of who I am The wise men, don’t bring me to my knees It’s solid now, the things that we repeat, things that we repeat, things that we repeat But don’t go chasing after green grass Cos it’s not as good as what we had I want us to be how we were before I want us to start out over again

Shy 03:12
You come round to my place and I don’t know what to do We sit on the sofa trying hard to be so true I make us some coffee and we roll a cigarette But all I can think about is what we could do instead Why don’t we go to Why don’t we go to I’m holding my hands down and I’m staring at the ground I don’t want you to notice me and I don’t want to be found My bodies going crazy and my mind has got no room I know I’m not a good person cos all I want is you Why don’t we go to Why don’t we go to Why don’t we go to There’s a bed in the room next door, we can sleep deep deep sleep.. there’s a bed in the room next door Crush Me Figure eight Me Steal my Skin Come Away With Me Come. Away.With. Me.
11.
So what if we don’t talk and we don’t call and we don’t even text no more So what I eat alone but I can’t eat, I sleep alone but I can’t sleep now And I don’t want to say goodbye but now I know we can never say hello And I don’t want to be alone but can you tell me what place can I go Breaking up with you is the best thing I can do Breaking up with you is the best thing I can do It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me I will make sure that this comes to be Since you’ve gone, I am dry eyed cos I refuse to cry when I feel sad Since you’ve gone I wear the same clothes that I wore it’s like I’m going mad I don’t know what I want, tell you when I know, when I work it out I don’t know when will I feel the difference between the day and the night Breaking up with you is the best thing I can do Breaking up with you is the best thing I can do It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me I will make sure that this comes to be

about

Kata's story: katamusic.com

"Feist getting intimate with Air in Snow Patrol’s bedroom"

Previously known as Nut, she recorded the album for Sony. Described at the time as a “little known masterpiece”, it was championed by DJ’s Phil Jupitus, Mark Radcliffe and Jo Whiley

Her unique blend of acoustic guitars, seductive pop and vintage electronics is certain to appeal to fans of the likes of Florence and the Machine, Sia and Emiliana Torrini. Co-produced by Andy Ramsay (Stereolab) Kata has created an album which she describes as sounding like Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath before the inception of the Birthday Letters.
