Leslie Feist(born Friday, February 13, 1976 in Amherst, Nova Scotia) is a Canadian singer-songwriter. She performs as a solo artist under the name Feist, and as a member of Broken Social Scene. Raised in Regina and Calgary, Feist got her start in music as the lead vocalist for a punk band called Placebo (not the more famous British band Placebo), who won a local Battle of the Bands competition and were awarded the opening slot at a Ramonesconcert. After five years of touring, Feist was forced to take time off from music to recover from voice damage. She moved from Calgary to Toronto in 1998 and took up guitar; by 1999, she was the guitarist for By Divine Right.

One Evening Lyrics

Feist

The evening was long, my guesses were true
You saw me see you
That something you said, the timing was right
The pleasure was mine
The time and the place, the look on your face
Sincerest eyes
If you're ready or not, the state of our hearts
There's no time to take
When we started both brokenhearted
Not believing it could begin and end in one evening
pa-pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
We were caught by the light
Held on the day till it became hours
The minutes went by, the cab is outside
There's no time to take
When we started both brokenhearted
Not believing it could begin and end in one evening
When we parted, moving on
And believing it could begin and end in one evening
When we parted, moving on
And believing it could begin and end in one evening
pa-pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa-pa
pa-pa-pa
