Jack et la mécanique du coeur (2013) 60% 2★

Miss Acacia: My vision’s not quite right
But glasses make me look a sight
Enough to give the world a fright
Like a sprite, wearing specs

Jack: Oh, fiery little sprite
Conflagration in the night
Don’t play games with your sight
If it leaves you in the dark

Miss Acacia: I prefer life of the blur
I forget to wear my glasses
When I sing I share caresses
It feels good to close my eyes

Jack: Oh, my pretty arsonist
Let me clasp you close to me
Or rip your clothes with my teeth
And tear them into confetti
To scatter as we kiss
Miss Acacia: Confetti?
Jack: On you and me

Miss Acacia: All I see are stars
Suddenly some daze
My eyes leave me astray
Faraway down the street
Until I come back to steal
A glance at the sun
Or even look the sky straight in the eye
All I see are stars

Jack: I won’t let you stray
I’ll be your only guide
Let me be your pair of eyes
You will be my special flame

Miss Acacia: There's one thing I must confess
Of five senses my hearing’s best
I’ll never recognize you by
Relying on my eyes

Jack: Smoldering embers, alone in the dark
We’ll raise cascades of sparks
As the clock of my heart
Strikes midnight we’ll catch on fire
And blaze so bright you’ll see the light

Both: All I see are stars
Suddenly some daze
My eyes leave me astray
Faraway down the street
Until I come back to steal
A glance at the sun
Or even look the sky straight in the eye
All I see are stars

Miss Acacia: What’s that odd pitter-patter?
Jack: That’s just the rain. Do you like the rain?
Miss Acacia: Getting wet, no. But the sound it makes, yes. A storm’s brewing, a thunderstorm?
Jack: A magnetic one.
