Bat For Lashes – Laura (Official Music Video)

Posted: 23 Jul 2012 12:05 PM PDT

Artist: Bat For Lashes (Natasha Khan)

Song: Laura

Bat for Lashes has announced new song 'Laura', after Zane Lowe premiered it this evening on Radio 1 as his 'Hottest Track In The World'.

'Laura', taken from the forthcoming album ‘The Haunted Man‘ (released October 15 2012), has been a fan favourite following recent performances at European festivals and although taken from the forthcoming album, the track will be available as an instant download to fans who pre-order the album on iTunes as of midnight tonight.

This devastating, tear-stained swoon of a piano ballad featuring seductively sombre horns and strings is accompanied by a suitably heart-rending video.

Take a listen to the song below:

Lyrics:

You say that the evil left you behind
Your heart broken,
A part of you died

Keep your arms around me and softly say
Can we dance upon the tables again?

When you smile so wide
Your heels are so high
You can't cry, get your glad rags on
And let's sing along
To that lonely song
Is a train that crashed my heart
You're the glitter in the dark

Uh, Laura you're more than a suṗerstar
And in this horror show
I've got to tell you so
Uh Laura you're more than a superstar

You say that you’re stuck in a pale blue dream
And your tears feel hard on my bed sheets
Keep your arms around me and softly say
Can we dance upon the tables again?

When you smile so wide
Your heels are so high
You can't cry but you're glad
Vibe's on and let's sing along
To that lonely song
You're the train that crashed my heart
You're the glitter in the dark
Uh, Laura you're more than a superstar
You’ll be famous for longer than them
Your name is tattooed on every boy's skin
Uh, Laura you're more than a superstar

You're the train that crashed my heart
You're the glitter in the dark
Uh, Laura you're more than a suṗerstar
And in this horror show
I've got to let you know
Uh Laura you're more than a superstar
You're more than a superstar
