Lyrics:
Magnetic, you're pulling me in with the words you don't say
Cinematic, this chemistry coming through
You're always in my head
Branding your fire on my lips
But this still won't work, no
No love you have come too late
No love you have come too late
Such darkness
But I know your face cause I learned it as if I was blind
In the moment
I feel like I am and I hate that I know it so well
You're always in my head
Searing your thoughts in to my skin
But this still won't work, no

[@nifika999]

I've been searching for this song for three whole years dude

[@PiFrame]

guess you found it "too late" huh? excuse the pun, i said it in pain, not for a laugh... but for the pain we share

[@payalswamimap]

Glad you found it.

[@nderohan]

How??? Why did your search take so long? Just look up paper kites and their albums;)

[@thelightswitchflickers3161]

And 3 years ago you found it ❤

[@pinuproute666]

My favorite on the album. Its the soundtrack for a late night slow dance with someone who no longer loves you like they used to.

[@midnightassassin2548]

Fucking hell

[@pegmarinello3188]

Ditto

[@gabrielleabbygaylebeltran8012]

Ouch😭

[@moiradelaturret]

OUCH :'(

[@ethnictransmissionsofficia6735]

or for the last time before the sunrise signals the end/begining.

[@robertastevens6057]

This song is a mood, not just a song.

[@dvxnerxys4838]

sounds like something you'd play on a late-night drive while savouring the feeling of being lonely.

[@editorDevVimal]

damn🖤

[@maialove4559]

Exactly what he did in cali

[@EnigmaticDice]

Literally my night tonight. Never heard of these guys and they randomly popped up on Apple Music. This song hit me right in the feels.

[@meloearth]

yeah, like 3am

[@nderohan]

I have done and been just that!

[@allanbozz210]

"Such darkness, but I know your face cause I learned it as if I was blind"... That's heavy and powerful

[@unglue7835]

I can just imagine myself walking into a pub after a tough day and this is what comes on live

[@skipweekley6949]

I stumbled across these guys while surfing. I thank the cyber-space gods for leading me to them. I've been listening since 1954, absorbing since 1964, experimenting since 1974, understanding since 1984, expressing since 1994, learning since 2004, and opening my mind and heart since "The Paper Kites" appeared on my radar in 2014... When I stumbled... And fell into their Genius...

[@carriehealy_]

Wow great timeline

[@skipweekley6949]

Carrie Healy Thank You...

[@B_Well32]

You're awesome

[@debrashaw3997]

Best comment ever about the Paper Kites!!

[@LikyLawlliet]

A comment worth of the music

[@amandahaskins5491]

By far some of the best music in two decades I’m astonished... and ashamed I didn’t discover them sooner

[@simoneward4217]

I am so grateful I saw Paper Kites and Hollow Coves this year. Absolutely loved and cherished every minute. Warm, loving blissful soul nourishing experience.

[@Erika_P_M]

Me too, me too! Where did you see them??

[@sometimesjune1022]

Everyone says this is calming and relaxing while it feels quite lonely to me - painful.

[@svsproductions1]

Believe it or not it can be both. Its extremely painful but also calming and soothing. It allows me to realize and then release my emotions through the song. theres complete despair in the lyrics and his voice but not in a negative way more like therapeutic.

[@coreysloan728]

This song will always punch me in the gut with how beautifully soul-wrenching it is

[@justincox7878]

Yes lonely indeed as i think we all have experienced at some point in our lives but its nice to have music like this to relate to the way we feel

[@juanjoserestrepocalle7770]

For me.... beautiful to share with someone else... in silence...just feeling, presence...

[@SpicePrincess1890]

I think the pain in this song is what makes it relaxing. It's a content, strange sort of 'relaxed' that comes with that sad, melancholy sort of feeling. The lyrics tell an incredibly sad and lonely story, but the beauty within it and the haunting way it's presented gives it a relaxing, "waiting for the rainstorm to end" sort of feeling. It's hard to fully explain.

[@randa140511]

This song is beautiful . To me it’s for someone who’s married that’s fallen for someone else . Too late to be with the right person . Relaxing , ambient , yet so painful at the same time .

[@garciaaeronpaulvillancio4750]

Isn't that fucked up? Why would you say yes to someone that you do not love in the first place.

[@randa140511]

nooch123 yes it is ! And yes , why would you !

[@EduardoEnMusica1]

You can be in the happiest and stable relationship, but somebody can just appear and light something inside yourself that you have never felt in your life, but it's already too late 💔

[@MrEhbaw]

This has been my theme song for a while now, every time I catch myself in the lonliest of solitude I would listen to this song.

[@jeffreytimbang6756]

kind of song that makes you wanna drive during late nights. Paper Kites is probably one of the best bands out there.

[@jcsaito4780]

Ladies and gentleman ... this is real music

[@teestaghosh9935]

Magnetic, you're pulling me in with the words you don't say Cinematic, this chemistry coming through You're always in my head Branding your fire on my lips But this still won't work, no No love you have come too late No love you have come too late Such darkness But I know your face cause I learned it as if I was blind In the moment I feel like I am and I hate that I know it so well You're always in my head Searing your thoughts in to my skin But this still won't work, no

[@kimjiwonie3621]

Paper Kites never fail to impress me.

[@way_bove]

The perfect band for late night metro rides back to your place. This is the sound of that ache of exhaustion which lonely stillness sometimes brings along.

[@PrettyLilRainbow]

Mesmerizing. Every music video from the Paper Kites is a work of art

[@SpookyOwl]

This song is always a punch to the gut. So beautiful and yet so terribly sad.

[@emmelinesprig489]

This song is pure ecstasy. Hearing it live made my life

[@franceslailatezon886]

there really is something about their songs and their artistic ways to create music videos. they never failed my expectations, they always match

[@PaddySheehan85]

Honestly think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written 😍👌

[@aleenacotto9703]

this song always makes me cry lmao wish i could have told him how i felt sooner maybe it wouldn't be like this

[@rosskstar]

WoW - i haven't gotten that deep of a body chill in a long time. Gorgeous.

[@lolabint3411]

this is my favorite song out of this album. I love it so much.

[@miquel440]

This is outstanding..brilliant music. I heard them on Dutch radio here a couple of weeks ago with Electric Indigo..I did know nothing of this band. But listened to their albums and cdn only say: beautiful. I.m a fan.And this song is epic.

[@Zinasoul]

This band is just perfect! Love each every song they write. I've enjoyed it so much seeing them live in Cologne last year.

[@78Boston]

Best song by them I am sure ..the lyrics hit you right in the heart and then the music takes your soul

[@oriannabampoe4326]

It's 05:31 am and this song describes everything I've been feeling for a long time. What are the chances that this was recommended to me? Thank you KZbin and thank you The Paper Kites. I can already feel that this'll be one of my favourite songs :) 💖

[@lyssarenee2572]

uuugghh... I love that when they're playing every movement ,every strum, every tap, every note they make is felt in unison. They feel and play together as one, and the fact that this song is so heavy and strong makes it all the more beautiful.

[@LovelyxImperfect]

So wonderful, their music is always so calming but powerful!

[@danielfernando6878]

❤😍

[@danielfernando6878]

❤😍

[@walex5462]

To me this is two nights, a long time apart, at the same place in Chicago. One night was beautiful one night was sad. I was with the same person. We watched the windows. We made our own little stories. We felt for everyone we created...their lives in our minds. We were just like them. A flickering light in a vast city night, one life, lives, in a window for all to create a story as well. A beginning and an end. It started and finished in those windows when we never knew what we had. Those moments, they are fleating. Enjoy them. Enjoy them

[@jesus1stmylawislove]

*This... tHIS is **_one of the most beautifulst Songs that exist_** and at the same time so unbelieveably damn sad.*

[@cosmicsolegirl7550]

Only just discovered this. Gorgeous and real. Reeks of heartache we’ve all been through at some point. Listening to this feels like the old wounds wanna open back up again. 🙄

[@Eric-xt3os]

5:20 is the best dawn after dark moment I've heard in music in a long time.. remember hearing this live and the bass just grabbing me there, so calm and convincing at the same time

[@chocolatemidnight455]

Just saw them in concert tonight in LA EFFING INCREDIBLE!! this song was magical people have not heard of them before were captured... this song IS THE SHYT!

[@Shubham-vy5cu]

Each and every song of this band is just on another level.

[@benedelbi2878]

It is all the things everyone here has said...and in October 2020 when all is uncertain...I feel it's an almost lockdown kind of vibe. Fortunate the ones who have someone's heart to call home.

[@lucasaraujo-wr4zb]

FINALLY ANOTHER SONG. THANKS THE PAPER KITES, YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME.

[@OnixSnipz]

It's not new, it's from their last album:)

[@lucasaraujo-wr4zb]

i never hear. so it's new for me xD

[@evie6183]

I have only recently learnt about the existence of The Paper Kites (how is this even possible?) and I'm so happy I did...their music is so so beautiful!

[@inbox0000]

It is, i went looking after hearing a song on Upload and stayed !

[@SpicePrincess1890]

You're never too late :3

[@amimishra14]

In a Loop for 7 days! You guys took the simplicity into the next level. GENIUS!! Love from India.

[@jetzereijinga6000]

How can you not love this...... wow, this song can go on for ever.

[@CarlosdelAlba]

todo su álbum de electro indigo es increíble, y su vídeo está mucho mejor, espero que algún día puedan venir a México. una gran banda

[@alanbf3971]

Un mexicano wow! :D

[@AndrewJurado13]

¡Pienso lo mismo, ya somos dos!

[@CarlosdelAlba]

Carlos Alan Broca Felix Hey qué tal? Si por...? Creo que la música no tiene fronteras De donde eres? Saludos

[@CarlosdelAlba]

***** Yehaa! Indie Rock...

[@alanbf3971]

+carlos del alba es que no conozco a muchas personas (mexicanas) que le guste este tipo de música, estoy en la frontera, en Tijuana para ser preciso ¿y tu dedo de eres? Un saludo :)

[@averageemm3135]

Love the sound. I don't know if it's just me or if others can hear some differences between this song and the Woodland EP, I love both and love the "change" I guess you could call it. This music is amazing

[@dariaweisbrodt1644]

Twelvefour is for sure my new favourite album. Piece of art!

[@KatherineGiffordMixBerkaan]

I love this. Paper Kites is one of my favorite bands

[@sammariofan]

Me in 2015 "what does this album mean sounds wonderful but the lyrics are all scientific? I guess it's about love???" me in 2017: Falls in love with someone and chemistry comes through when its too late. "oh."

[@joefalchetto94]

I feel you.. I'm so afraid I'm going to live the same thing soon :[

[@loeuvrededieu]

The inner city sounds are quite soothing.

[@skipweekley6949]

"You're always in my head..." The Paper Kites!! One of the greatest, unknown and obscure Bands of the last 20 years!!! Well, they are no longer OBSCURE! "NO LOVE, YOU HAVE COME, TOO LATE..." Incredible Sounding Band . . .

[@christyismoroccabeamer80s]

Such darkness , But I know your face Cause I learned it as if I were blind.. How deep is that?!?! Dear God how I miss you C!!!!!! It's just not right to be so completely in love with someone and not be with them!😪😪😪 Paper Kites- just breathtakingly beautiful! No words, just tears! Love love love you guys! Thank you!💜

[@j.wesley4398]

I stumbled across this group on Spotify a couple of weeks ago! I’m in love!

[@iamnanoca]

Amazing! 😍 you guys should come someday to Brazil!!

[@goncalopinela8903]

I can't stop listen this song! It's so good...Thank you guys!

[@DavidHerrera]

My gad!! Too late is a beautiful song and this is beautiful music video. 💙 Saludos! Los amo ❤️ 🇲🇽

[@KingEnforcer]

El Comelibros 🇲🇽💙

[@adrianchavez2005]

The Paperkitesband are perfect to pass the time.

[@carriehealy_]

every thepaperkitesband music video has something meaningful in it. so full of mystery and art.

[@GreenShamrocks25]

Such passionate voices, chords and lyrics. If my husband had written a song just before he took his own life, I feel like this would have been it. He thought I was leaving him and never gave me a chance to reassure him I would never, ever leave him. 😪💔

[@lukluatulhasanah3328]

I'm addicted to this song. my favorite person played this song the first time we met. I hope he becomes the most important part of my life. :')

[@nathycamprock]

Sempre me surpreende cada vez que troca de música no álbum de vocês. Eu não conseguiria expressar em palavras o quão sou apaixonada pelo trabalho de vocês. Obrigada.

[@Gundim18]

Estou três anos adiantado no tempo para dizer que me identifiquei com seu comentário.

[@alwaysdianne]

Their live performance of this song is chillingly beautiful and beautifully chilling

[@psusimon]

Just a beautiful video to pair with a chilling, emotional track... Amazing as always!

[@_heretique]

I'm always waiting for their new songs. And I'll always be. Favorite band, and that'll never change. 💖

[@sandramiksawrites]

I could never tire from this song.

[@laislemes4044]

Brasil ama vocês ❤

[@BlogdoMath]

Please come to brazil

[@Vitor-nb9cm]

Ama mesmo

[@carlosmoraes7708]

[@Violetist4]

[@tcofs8017]

Portugal te ama

[@saurabhmetangale]

Every single time I listen to this song, someone starts cutting onions 😢

[@insanely.sane.scientist]

APRIL 2020 ❤️ You're pulling me in with the words you don't say 🔥

[@moonie8611]

Saw the video on my recommended list and was honestly so shook. The track fits in amazingly with the aesthetic visuals of the music video - a perfect match with my favourite track of the album!

[@Gleeky4ever]

I'm so in love

[@payalswamimap]

Such musics are gem. And they need to be protected at all costs.

[@jspepinc]

Had the pleasure of seeing this show live in Sydney. They played the whole show as if they were on a street beneath the apartment building

[@carlieins]

i love this band so much it hurts

[@keegan1660]

Their best song. Not just on this album. Of all their work. Just amazing.

[@tonyvasquez6445]

[@DarkHunter514-11231963]

What a wonderful surprise!!

[@arjangoenagacastillo9689]

DarkHunter514 indeed

[@SimplySophie98]

Such a beautiful song ❤️

[@N3Wdirection]

One of the best songs on the album; happy to see it realized in video form. Seriously dig the 80s feel - which is also why Revelator Eyes and Electric Indigo rock, too.

[@erendon91]

Pure talent. Such an amazing song.

[@TheBradfordrich]

Moving, emotionally inspiring, visually beautiful. Love it!

[@zaidabdurrosyid]

Speechless. I'm drowning.

[@slickypass1695]

So great. Takes me back to the Enmore Theatre gig earlier this year. So glad I have heard your music. It is so soothing. Lyrics are profound and you craft and tell great stories! Looking forward to seeing you again in concert for the 12th time in 2017.

[@marcosgrimm]

[@CYATBAI]

One of the most underrated songs EVER. Just sayin.

[@tundeseres9065]

[@mozhdeh7243]

Best song ever

[@maneensom]

When did they ever make a bad song? I love them so much.

[@youaremystars]

I love your music, so please keep doing songs that heal my soul.

[@prateekkumar4092]

This whole song is a powerful poetry about my biggest psychological insecurity in life.

[@zadalmelik011]

I agree with you mate.

[@juanamendoza8278]

Just came across them and just WOW!!

[@ihdlyrics3064]

so much love for this band ❤

[@outofbox9084]

[@nderohan]

Sam Bentley isn't the dude I pictured singing these incredible songs but he does it so well!

[@Bisane4music]

Oh my god - your music is so wonderful and unique! So much love for you!

[@Hannah-xb6yd]

I'd like to see more of this window-stories! Beautiful video, even more beautiful song.

[@julan5582]
