Francis and The Lights--"For Days"




After a weekend of partying with a bunch of Wesleyan University alums, I was introduced to Francis and The Lights, a pop band with a very distinctive, neo-80s sound.  The band's song "For Days" is one of those records that grabs you both rhythmically and lyrically, though it's not as tacky as we remember some 80s songs to be. On another note, Wesleyan U continues to produce some of the better bands in music today. Enjoy!


Excerpt for the Wannabe Expert
It's a shame
That's what it is
I've been watching you for days now
I'd never say, I wish that it would happen
But in a way I wish it would
But oh
I didn't do a thing
But if there was just an air strike
Or a natural disaster
You coulda been mine
Whoa oh 
Whoa I hope
That I didn't go too far
But I've been watching you for days now
You never know
They could come tomorrow
And in a way I wish they would
But oh oh oh
I didn't do a thing
But if there was just an air strike
Or a natural disaster
You coulda been mine
Whoa oh 
Whoa oh
Here I am
Staring at ya 
Wish you wouldn't look away when you know I want you
I wish I had four days alone with you
I wish I could I could have
Changed my mind in a second if you'd given me one second just to think
You coulda have looked me in the eye when you said it
If you'd given me one second give me one
second give me one second 
give me one second
give me one second
If there was just an air strike or a natural disaster
You coulda been mine
Whoa oh oh
Stop baby
Said stop baby
