Two People In A Room

Stephan Eicher · Traces [2009]

I put my feelings in a spoon, try to carry them to the moon.

Spill my love, these tears from above, the wound cut down to the bone.

Leave me, leave me all alone 'cause her knife was too sharp

Her knife was too sharp, baby, baby but then I met you.

You took away my blues, I don't wanna fall in love with you

'Cause one day one day, I sing the same sad song for you.



Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

You're all I need tonight, at least we've got a start.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.



I look at you, you look back at me.

I can see you're lonesome just like me.

And here they come, these waves of fear

'Cause one day, one day, I sing the same sad song for you.



Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

You're all I need tonight, at least we've got a start.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.



But then I met you, you took away my blues

But I don't wanna fall in love with you

'Cause one day, one day, I sing the same sad song for you.



Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

You're all I need tonight, at least we've got a start.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

You're all I need tonight, at least we've got a start.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

Two people in a room, two pieces of my heart.

You're all I need tonight, at least we've got a start.

Two people in a room, two people in a room.

Two People In A Room

Stephan Eicher's 'Two People In A Room' stands as a poignant centerpiece on the 2009 album Traces, showcasing his signature blend of intimate acoustic guitar and atmospheric textures. Recorded in the French language, the track exemplifies Eicher's ability to craft lush, emotive soundscapes that prioritize mood over conventional songwriting structures. Released during a period where his discography increasingly favored ambient pop and electronic undertones, the recording reflects his mature approach to blending organic instrumentation with modern production techniques. The song captures a quiet, introspective moment, characteristic of Eicher's broader body of work which often explores themes of solitude and connection through minimalistic yet richly layered arrangements.
