Impossible Love
Melody Gardot Lyrics
This is an impossible love
The kind you only hear of in cinematic dreams
This is an impossible love
With syndromatic schemes
It's never just as lovely as it seems
Yes this is an impossible love
The flame in lust is an exhaustible love
And flames combust
We flames would be hand in glove
This is an impossible love
Though both of your arms would offer a tender caress
It's such an exhaustible love
Fuelling my heart with only illusion at best
C'est un jeu d'echecs
Un jeu de flechettes
Le mouvement dans l'obscurite
Vide de verite
C'est une ligne qu'ou ne peut pas voir
Un dessin dans l'air
Détruit mes espoirs
Un jeu de garçons
Auquel decidement, non je dis non
Tes mains sur mes collants
Et tes yeux comme des enfants
Ta voix comme un orage d'ete
Nos ténèbres, silhouettes
Adieu, sans regrets
This is an impossible love

Born on the 2nd February 1985 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Gardot took up piano and played as a youngster on the nightclub scene of Philadelphia, influenced by jazz, folk, rock, and pop musics. At the age of nineteen she was a fashion student at the Community College of Philadelphia. While cycling in Philadelphia in November 2003 she was hit by a car whose driver had ignored a red traffic light. In the accident she suffered serious head and spinal injuries, and her pelvis was broken in two places. Because of these severe injuries she was confined to her hospital bed for a year. Her musical beginning was prompted by a tending physician who was concerned with her cognitive impairment as a result of head injury sustained in the accident. He believed that music would help her brain injury improve, as it has been known to show remarkable results in improving people's cognitive ability after such trauma.
Following her doctor's suggestion, Gardot made recordings bedside, while still unable to walk, and eventually released the works as an EP: Some Lessons: The Bedroom Sessions (2005). Gardot's desire to be well, combined with a bit of luck, brought her to the attention of a local radio DJ at the AAA station WXPN (known for launching the careers of artists such as Amos Lee and Norah Jones). Her cognitive powers slowly but surely became pronounced, leading to the independent recording and release of her debut CD, Worrisome Heart, which was reissued in 2007 by Verve records.
Gardot is hypersensitive to light and noise, so wears dark glasses; she also uses a cane to walk. Onstage she requires a special seating unit, and wears a Transcutaneous Electro-Nerve Stimulator, a TENS device, to assist in alleviating her neuralgic muscle pain. Though touring is difficult, she has been performing in major cities on the East Coast of the U.S. to support her recordings. In 2009, working with producer Larry Klein and arranger Vince Mendoza - both known for their work with Joni Mitchell - Gardot followed up her Verve debut with My One and Only Thrill.
In 2012, she released the album The Absence.

This is an impossible love
The kind you only hear of in cinematic dreams
This is an impossible love
With syndromatic schemes
It's never just as lovely as it seems
Yes this is an impossible love
The flame in lust is an exhaustible love
And flames combust
We flames would be hand in glove
And why should two loves not agree, no
This is an impossible love
Though both of your arms would offer a tender caress
It's such an exhaustible love
Fuelling my heart with only illusion at best
C'est un jeu d'echecs
Un jeu de flechettes
Le mouvement dans l'obscurite
Vide de verite
C'est une ligne qu'ou ne peut pas voir
Un dessin dans l'air
Détruit mes espoirs
Un jeu de garçons
Auquel decidement, non je dis non
Tes mains sur mes collants
Et tes yeux comme des enfants
Ta voix comme un orage d'ete
Nos ténèbres, silhouettes
Adieu, sans regrets
This is an impossible love
ViviSol13
It's a game of chess
A game of darts
A movement in the dark
Void of truth
It's a line that one cannot see
An image in the air
Destroying my hopes
A child's game
To which decidedly, I say no
Your hands on my pantyhose
And your eyes like a child's
Your voice like a summer thunderstorm
Our dark shadows
Goodbye, without regrets
