I’ll give you each love letter back
We’ll laugh before every joke is told
We’ll pose after every photograph
Has been removed from the negative
[indistinct muttering]
With every smile we lose a line
Watch the stars fall back into the sky
Cork the wine
Unbake a cake
Take the dog back to the RSPCA
But I don’t mind losing you this time
I’ll meet you coming backwards
I’ll meet you coming back
When the universe has expanded
Time will contract
You’ll come back
I’ll meet you coming backwards
Next time
We make-up start an argument
Tears crawl back into your…
I turn from a friend
Of your friend
Unintroduced
Forget your name forevermore
But I don’t mind losing you this time
I’ll meet you coming backwards…
Yes I’ll meet you coming back
But we move forwards
Into emptiness
Into the void
Into the universe
We’ll part as happy strangers
From a long friendship
That grew from
Such a love

Franz Ferdinand è un gruppo musicale scozzese formatosi a Glasgow nel 2002. Il loro sound, definito indie rock con influenze post-punk e art rock, ha conquistato rapidamente l'attenzione della critica e del pubblico internazionale. Il nome del gruppo deriva dall'arciduca Francesco Ferdinando d'Austria, la cui ascesa al potere scatenò la Prima Guerra Mondiale. 2004 vide la pubblicazione del loro album di debutto omonimo, che ottenne un enorme successo grazie a brani come "Take Me Out" e "The Dark of the Matinee". Il secondo album, "You Could Have It So Much Better", uscito nel 2005, consolidò il loro status di band di culto. Franz Ferdinand è noto per le performance energiche dal vivo e per l'abilità compositiva di Alex Kapranos, il frontman del gruppo. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano anche "Do You Want To" e "Stand On The Horizon".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
