god bless the daylight, the sugary smell of springtime
remembering when you were mine
in a still suburban town

when every thursday i'd brave those mountain passes
and you'd skip your early classes
and we'd learn how our bodies worked

god damn the black night with all its foul temptations
i've become what i always hated
when i was with you then

we looked like giants in the back of my grey subcompact
fumbling to make contact
as the others slept inside

and together there
in a shroud of frost, the mountain air
began to pass through every pane of weathered glass
and i held you closer than anyone would ever guess

do you remember the JAMC?
and reading aloud from magazines
i don't know about you but i swear on my name they could smell it on me
i've never been too good with secrets
no…

and together there
in a shroud of frost, the mountain air
began to pass through every pane of weathered glass
and i held you closer…

Review about We Looked Like Giants

Woah. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/27/2008

Death Cab is the best band to listen to in peaks, and in the lowest points of a relationship and even life in my opinion. I dated this girl for a long time, and in the peaks of our relationship I would lay in bed listening to Death Cab with butterflies in my stomach. And the day that we split apart I layed in bed listening to Death Cab crying. They are deffenitely one of the best bands on the planet and they helped me get through a lot of things. To the guy/girl below me, you are 100% right, and thank you for explaining what this song meant.

to me this song is about the nervousness and excitement you feel in your first relationship, and especially your first 'intimate' moments... when you 'learn how your bodies work'. Gibbard and his lover looked'like giants' fumbling and feeling around in the back of his car... because to thier less 'experienced' friends asleep at home, they looked more mature, popular, attractive...

To me the most prominant line in this song is 'i became what i always hated when i was with you'... because of the jealousy he previously felt towards other peers who were busy exploring the joys of sex, whilst he was like the others asleep at home. However now hes met this girl, he has began to experience what he was jealous of, and become one of the people he previously loathed - he has become a giant, proud, powerful and secure.
and although the girl thinks they should keep it quiet, he just cant help himself... he tells her that his friends could smell it on him, but then again, hes 'never been to good with secrets'

what do you think?
