about

The Gentleman is a Croatia based singer-songwriter and a multi-instrumentalist. “Body or Soul” is his third single from the forthcoming album “Hide & Seek” which will be released 29th October.

The music was written by The Gentleman, lyrics by Mrs. Dulovsky and the arrangement for brass by a renowned jazz musician Lana Janjanin. “Body or Soul” leads us through the controversy of the relationship between the physical and the spiritual values in a complex human nature.
The video production was made by Dinko Šimac, one of the accomplished and recognized Croatian directors.

lyrics

This body isn't good
Too soft on the outside
And too hard on the inside

This body is hurting us
Leaves redness on wrists
And deep black in the eyes

This body can not walk straight
It can't carry us for a long, honey
This body needs you
More than ever to let me out

Open up for me
To put myself in you
Slit my skin
And save me from this body

You never saw me
I'm all around you
This face is just an outline that you see
In a good dream
These arms are wider than the Earth

Every fifth night we are lying together
In deep darkness there comes the light
Undo me, love
Get me out of myself

Open up for me
To put myself in you
Slit my skin
And save me from this body

Body or Soul
It`s up to you
