The Blower's Daughter Lyrics
Artist(Band):Damien Rice
Review The Song (119)Print the Lyrics
And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

Review about The Blower's Daughter

I love this song. I cant take my eyes off you is such an amazing lyrics which touch me all life long.
A girl is working with me. I find myself is loving her but I dare not say anything as I am actually in relationship.
I tried to wipe out the memories with her but I simply cant take my eyes off her.
What an amazing songs.



the pupil in denial. | Reviewer: Hannah | 11/8/09

In case anybody wanted to know
the actual meaning behind this song,
here it is:

Damien explained it at one of his concerts.

The Blower in question wasn't a clarinet teacher, but the cockney rhyming slang for the telephone (Stick with me, I know it sounds ambiguous!). Before he was in Juniper Damien worked at a call centre selling mortgages and loans, and spent all day on the telephone. He grew sick of speaking to people for 8 hours a day without seeing anyone's face, and he began to fantasize about the people behind the many voices he heard. One summer day he phoned a house and a girl with a melodic soft, sweet voice answered the phone. He was calling for her father, but he wasn't in. Protocol said he should have ended the call and phoned back another time, but he was mesmerized and enchanted by her voice and ended up chatting to her for over an hour. Damien began a secret relationship of sorts with the girl, always calling when he knew her father wouldn't be home just so they could talk, despite knowing that it could get him sacked. He dreamed of her at night, daydreamed about her all day long.

This continued for over a month, but one day he called and there was no answer. For the next week he called again numerous times a day, but still nobody picked up the phone. Confused by this abrupt end to the relationship, Damien became angry and obsessive (you were right about the obsessive bit) and found out the address of the girl. He took a day off work and got the bus out to the address.

Hidden in a hedge he watched the front door fervently for any signs of life, but he didn't expect what he finally saw. The voice was unmistakably the same, and as she shouted 'bye mum', closing the front door behind her Damien was amazed to see that this dreamgirl of his was wearing a school uniform. He couldn't believe his eyes and could not stop staring at her in shock. All the pieces of the puzzle finally fell into place - she was at home during the school holidays, led him on and played games, then when school started back she just stopped. Damien was angry but obviously couldn't tell anybody about it for fear of being branded a perv. He left the company and formed Juniper shortly after.



Windy love | Reviewer: Shackelton | 11/6/09

My true love just sent me this song. Its about life, about feelings. Just the same things she makes to me in such a wonderful way. I dont know if we will ever be together, we would love to but such is life. Anyway, we do love each other. That is the most important thing even thou the wind blows in another direction.



Honesty | Reviewer: rachel | 10/21/09

Why can't everyone speak like this? So real and honest and uncalculating. It's like watching someone break down and tell you everything they're really feeling, no more "I'll be fine"s. Excellent song by an excellent lyricist.



tonight | Reviewer: jenny | 10/12/09

tonight I found out that the person who introduced this song to me has passed away. I miss him and I can't keep my mind off of him. He was a beautiful person just like this song. U will always b on my mind. RIP JRM.



life goes easy on me. | Reviewer: Steph | 9/25/09

Two years ago, I fell in love. We were next to each other everyday, with our walks and talks and getting though any hurt that came our way. He was so wrapped up in a girl who didnt want him, that he never saw me there that everyday, loving him with all I had. Three months later I met a boy who saved me, my boyfriend of almost two years now. Id be a liar and I was if I said that i didnt think about my lost love, if I didnt still miss that lost love, if I wasnt still in love with that lost love.

Two nights ago, while still dating that boy who saved me, I kissed that lost love, and after talking away a bowling ball pit in my stomach, all I want to do kiss my lost boy again.

My boyfriend will never know. Im in the inbetween place of wanting our moment to disappear and keeping it forever for just me to him to remember.



a song to relief.. | Reviewer: ray de lorez | 7/30/09

it's been four years now..i already forgotten what was happened.. her eyes, her smile.. she was a saxophonist daughter..she used to be my wife..but god called her for good.. i hear this song, almost drop my tears.. salute to damien rice...



I can't take my eyes of her... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/13/09

Once upon a time, seems it was a lifetime ago... i fell in love with a beautiful girl... I told her you're beautiful, i told her you're amazing... i'll do everything for you... i begged her on my knees to give us a chance... i devoted poems to her ... i knew i could turn the world around for her... and then, after fighting for her for half a year i gave up... and now i feel nothing... emptiness... i guess i will not love anyone like that anymore... and i do not love her either anymore.... This song reminds me of my Suzie...



Probably the most beautiful words | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/7/09

I'm a highschooler. Madly in love, and though I know the percentage; it may not last farther, I can always rely on this song for the emotional support I'll need when I grow up without my current significant other.



Life almost always goes on. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/7/09

Dang, this song meticulously portrays exactly what I'm going through, the thoughts going through my mind, the exact feelings I'm feeling. I hate it for that reason, I hate how dead on this song is. It's a horrible feeling, trying to leave everything behind, especially if you were so in love. I can't listen to any love songs, and apparently songs about loathing the person you were in love with either. Anyways, it's a beautiful song, tear worthy. And I have to agree, Closer is an amazing movie.
