Where I Live Lyrics

I've never seen the Nothern lights,
I've never seen the snow
I never walked across the ice
I ignore the ocean's flow

Where I'm born is where I'll die
Where I live is where I cry

My children left on a cold night
My husband said it's how things go
Like rabbits blinded by the light
Kids want a better place to grow


Where I'm born is where I'll die
At night I shiver and I try
To forget that I never cheated
That I tried to be strong
No matter how wise I was, I feel wrong
To forget that I never followed
That man that I adored
Who promised me pretty sins and gold

And I'm waiting for the sun
And I'm waiting for the sun

I will never be out of sight
I'll never feel the snow
I'll never reach the truth of lies
I'm just watching my flowers grow

Where I'm born is where I'll die
At night I can't sleep when I try
To forget that I never cheated
That I tried to be strong
No matter how wise I was, I feel wrong
To forget that I never followed
That man that I adored
Who promised me pretty sins and gold

And I'm waiting for the sun
And I'm waiting for the sun

Woodkid is Yoann Lemoine (Lyon, March 1983) , previously known for his career as a video director (Yelle, Moby, Katy Perry, Lana Del Rey). After studying in London, and during a shoot in the USA, Woodkid received, straight from the hands of great American guitarist Richie Havens, a banjo that immediately replaced his piano, at least for a while.

After relocating to Paris, Woodkid released the Iron EP (produced by Woodkid, Julien Delfaud and Benjamin Lebeau also from The Shoes) in 2011. The lead track, Iron was arranged by Gustave Rudman. The self directed promo video features model Agyness Deyn. The track was also remixed by Mystery Jets and Gucci Vamp. A year later, in July 2012, the track "Run Boy Run" was released as a limited edition 7" with remixes by Sebastian and Ostend through a digital release.

His debut album, The Golden Age, was released on March 18, 2013, through an independent label, Green United Music. It features orchestrations by Bruno Bertoli and is mixed by Julien Delfaud. The next single to be extracted from the album was "I Love You" which features a Pharrel Williams remix.
