Marketa Irglova - If You Want Me - (Official Video)

In 2006 a few friends got together and made a movie on the streets of Dublin in January. A film by John Carney, starring Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová - Once. Film Stills Photography by David Cleary, video by Markéta Irglová.

David Cleary is a Dublin based photographer and a dear friend.
He captured many wonderful moments pre & post Once, some of which are included in this video.
David’s photographs remain a true gift to all of us who lived those moments in time, offering a precious opportunity to revisit them and feel just how much they still resonate within our hearts, even to this day.

Those of you who have held Once close to your heart throughout the years will surely appreciate this journey as well. Thank you for watching.


LYRICS -

Are you really here,
Or am I dreaming?
I can’t tell dreams from truth,
For it’s been so long,
Since I have seen you,
I can hardly remember your face anymore,

But when I get really lonely,
And the distance causes only silence,
I think of you smiling,
The pride in your eyes,
A lover that sighs,

If you want me,
Satisfy me.
If you want me,
Satisfy me

Are you really sure,
That you’d believe me,
When others say I lie?
I wonder if you could,
Ever despise me,
When you know I really try,

To be a better one,
To satisfy you,
‘Cause you’re everything to me,
And I’ll do what you ask me,
If you let me be free.

If you want me,
Satisfy me.
If you want me,
Satisfy me
