You Could Be Happy Lyrics By Snow Patrol

You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops 'till it's madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do

More than anything I want to see you, girl
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

Headlights On Dark Roads Lyrics By Snow Patrol

For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
Hit me hard enough to wake me
And lead me wild to your dark roads

Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear

My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
And let the blood fall in my mouth

Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear

Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear

Chocolate Lyrics By Snow Patrol

This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

What have I done it's too late for that
What have I become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time

Black And Blue Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Blood red lips like soft intentions
Kiss my eyes - they're black and blue
Even if I shouldn't be here
I cannot help myself with you
There's something that I should have told you
We won't get a second chance
Just one night is all we'll spend
Together and it's killing me
She rescues me

You're All I Have Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Strain this chaos turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere

Just give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

You're cinematic razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have

Hands Open Lyrics By Snow Patrol

It's hard to argue when
you won't stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves and it
keeps digging my own grave with my

Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens

Why would I sabotage
the best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
exactly what I want with my...

Hands open and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
that your heart opens

It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy

[x2]

Put Sufjan Stevens on
and we'll play your favorite song
"Chicago" bursts to life and your
sweet smile remembers you, my

Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens

It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy

[x3]

Shut Your Eyes Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Shut your eyes and think of somewhere
Somewhere cold and caked in snow
By the fire we break the quiet
Learn to wear each other well

And when the worrying starts to hurt
and the world feels like graves of dirt
Just close your eyes until
you can imagine this place, yeah, our secret space at will

Shut your eyes, I spin the big chair
And you'll feel dizzy, light, and free
And falling gently on the cushion
You can come and sing to me

And when the worrying starts to hurt
and the world feels like graves of dirt
Just close your eyes until
you can imagine this place, yeah, our secret space at will

(Shut your eyes [x4])

Shut your eyes and sing to me (Shut your eyes and sing to me) [x4]

Making Enemies Lyrics By Snow Patrol

We're just waiting for our man
To come through with a plan
Of how the hell we turn this round
And dig ourselves out of the ground
We don't really want to know
The things you claim to know
It could fall around our ears
Might no hurt for years and years

Last Ever Lone Gunman Lyrics By Snow Patrol

This heart break is never ending
It's like it never happened
A fall from grace is close
Why not speed it up?
I've never been so angry
To find out that I failed
It didn't even work
I have to make amends
I shot him from the window
The world just held it's breath
And I made my escape
As if no-one could see
I took off in my pick-up
Kids screaming in the back seat
They heard the shots too
And screamed cause that's their way
I do it alright in my own way
We've all got bigger plans
But when it comes down to it
Mine might save the world
At least for one more day
Don't judge me from your sofas
On TV things don't ever come across so true
They're made up in your minds

Favourite Friend Lyrics By Snow Patrol

You're my favourite friend
And I adore you
Love you to the end
No one heard a word you say
You're my favourite friend
We rule the world together
With out secret codes
And plans we can't remember
From now on, must be strong
My favourite friend
You're my favourite friend
When I need you
And when I don't as well
Of course you miss me being around
You're my favourite friend
But I'm older now
I can't pretend
I can't see you anymore

If I'd Found The Right Words To Say Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Right about now, if I'd found the right words to say
I'd tell you you're safe and take hold of your hand
I'll be there by your side for the rest of your life
Our bodies could fall off the end of the world
Something told me we'd be happy forever
I don't see how this could change any of that
I will follow your ghost as it climbs up the rock-face
And lie with you on the grass above
And I'd like to change all this
And I'd like to wake up from this
By your side
How did we ever survive for this length of time?
Living with only a care in the world
But the light that shines from her
Whenever she's happy is worth every minute that we've saved ourselves
Maybe there's hope in just one final second
A flash of her love as she waves us goodbye
Don't torture yourself with what might have given
We did everything that we could ever do
And I'd like to chnge all this
And I'd like to wake up form this
By your side.

On Off Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I couldn't believe what I was seeing
Faces all screwed up like what I'd done
I didn't mean to hurt you so much
I knew it would hurt you but not like this
We all make a mess from time to time, dear
But it'll take me a lifetime to get this cleared
Somebody muttered something under their breath
But I let on like I was a little deaf
Nobody's perfect, that's what I say
No one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry
Running away seemed like the easy thing to do because I wanted time
To put a smile back on your face
For once nothing's missing and I feel fine
I was afraid to tell you some things
But some things all find a way to get told
Hearing it from the lips of somebody else
Must have knocked the wind out of your sweet chest

Days Without Paracetamol Lyrics By Snow Patrol

When summer falls asleep
And winter plucks your strings
The colder that you get
Makes you feel at home
Build it up, tear it up, throw it out
If I come round there now
Would you be pleased to see me
I wouldn't make much noise
Just whimper to myself
Build it up, tear it up, throw it out
My head hurts more each time
The drinking strangles me
Believ in God, like hell
Believe in hell, by God

Holy Cow Lyrics By Snow Patrol

You Holy Cow
The telegraph pole knows where
It knows where you live
You Holy Cow
I'll get it to take me there
And shout abuse at your window
1,2,3,4
I can take no more
You Holy Cow
I'll stand out here all night
Here on your front porch
You Holy Cow
I have no pride left to worry about

Signal Fire Lyrics By Snow Patrol

The perfect words never crossed my mind,
Cuz there was nothin' in there but you.
I felt every ounce of me screaming out,
But the sound was trapped deep in me.
All I wanted just sped right past me,
While I was rooted fast to the earth,
I could be stuck here for a thousand years,
Without your arms to drag me out.

[Chorus:]
There you are standing right in front of me
There you are standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked,
Hold me close, cuz I need you to guide me to safety.

No, I don't want to wait forever [x2]

In the confusion and the aftermath,
You are my signal fire.
The only resolution and the only joy,
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes.

[Chorus (x2)]

No, I don't want to wait forever [x3]

Fifteen Minutes Old Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I'm good for inspiration, aren't I?
You will find
Well, close the door and I'll go anywhere
You take me to from this bed onto so much more
Care for you, I will
Can I have a picture of you tonight
Keep it with me always in my mind
Tough me cause I can't move
I can barely breathe,
speechless, breathless
I can't tell you if I'm here or not
Running both legs tied together
Arms in the air
Care for you, I will
Can I have a picture of you tonight
Keep it with me always in my mind

Ways And Means Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Getting too busy to make amends
I should try to make it right
Are you ready for the shit to hit
I think you say you are but aren't
Doctor make it better instantly
You're the only one who can
I've been waiting here my whole damn life
And I've forgotten what I wanted

Maybe I can do it
If I put my back into it
I can leave you if I wanted
But there's nowhere else that I can go

Maybe I won't suffer
If I find a way to love her
I'd be lying to myself
But there is no way out that I can see

If I lied you'd know it instantly
So I just had to look away
All the honesty I've ever lost
I can't begin to even curse
I never knew the taste of blood till now
It's clear I never should have known
Breathing fire was never this much fun
So there's a dark side in us all

Starfighter Pilot Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Andrew#s a starfighter pilot
He can get high in his jet
Tells me about all his women
He can get any I'll bet
Andrew's a starfighter pilot
He knows all the girls in the world
He's better than James Kirk ir Tweeky
I cradle his picture at night
You know I'll think of you
Your picture on the wall
I would raise my drink to you
But I'll stay sober just for you
Andrew's a starfighter pilot
I watch him on TV each day
I've got all the toys from his programme
And all of his past shows on tape

It's Beginning To Get To Me Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I want something
That's purer than the water
Like we were

It's not there now
Ineloquence and anger
Are all we have

Like Saturn's rings
An icy loop around me
Too hard to hold

Lash out first
At all the things we don't like
Or understand

And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed

Are you beginning to get get my point
That all this fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about

The answer phone
The lonely sound of your voice
Frozen in time

I only need
The compass that you gave me
To guide me on

And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed

Are you beginning to get get my point
That all this fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about

It's so thrilling but also wrong
Don't have to prove that you are so strong
'Cause I can carry you on my back
After our enemies attack

I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screaming under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense

We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost

We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost

Somewhere A Clock Is Ticking Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I've got this feeling that there's something that I missed
(I could do most anything to you...)
Don't you breathe
Something happened, that I never understood
You can't leave
Every second, dripping off my fingertips
Wage your war
Another soldier, says he's not afraid to die
Well I am scared
In slow motion, the blast is beautiful
Doors slam shut
A clock is ticking, but it's hidden far away
Safe and sound

Absolute Gravity Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Her gravity make me feel light-headed
Small-talk turns to dust in my mouth
She doesn't know that I'm already
thinking bout how I'm gonna make her look my way
But she smiles at herself in mirrors
A little too often these days
Maybe I'm unbalanced
The way she walks, my God she'd get it
All my friends reckon she is oh so fine
But the way I talk when I'm speaking near her
She must think I crawled out of the sea today

Never Gonna Fall In Love Again Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Something snapped me out of a dream that I was having
I'd falled down an elevator shaft but now I'm back again
Tidying up after the fight we had
Happy with yourself?
Well, you've never looked so satisfied
Teasing me with stuff like a spolit little brother
You finished yet?
Have you got what you really want?

Chased By.... I Don't Know What Lyrics By Snow Patrol

And I'll come running for my life
Scramble through greasy pathways
I can't look up for fear of forwards
I hear your words reverberate
An easy ride is all you said I was
Please try to control your feelings
It doesn't make me want you more
I'm terrified my every vacant glance you shoot my way

Whatevers Left Lyrics By Snow Patrol

It's a feeling I've had many times before
I can't hold the fort so don't give me more
I struggle and sweat when I'm wide awake
When I know I'm fine, I'm not used to fine

It's the same thing again
But it could become a problem if
We don't deal with it now
And you blast off in another rant
I've not opened my mouth
Can you read my mind so easily
As the madness sets in
You must know that I'll follow you

A sudden movement and a broken limb
The patches are there to show where I'm hit
My fault is it now well that's news to me
Curled and joyless we try once again

Spitting Games Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I broke into your house last night
And left a note at your bedside
I'm far too shy to speak to you at school
You leave me numb and I'm not sure why

I find it easier to sit and stare
Than push my limbs out towards you right there
My heart is bursting in your perfect eyes
As blue as oceans and as pure as skies

I struggle for the words and then give up
My heads up with the birds on the t-hut
A little piece of mind that I know better
Than the plain disgrace of all my letters

But after that the floodgates opened up
And I fell in love with everyone I saw
Please take your time I'm not in any rush
And it's in everything I ever write

It's not as if I need the extra weight
Confused enough by life so thanks a lot
Lonely written words for company
Just raise the roof this once and follow me

Open Your Eyes Lyrics By Snow Patrol

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x4]

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
'Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x8]

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you

You're All I Have Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Strain this chaos turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere

Just give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

You're cinematic razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have

Little Hide Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I wish I had a penny for
everytime she gave me those eyes
Those eyes would cry, take me on the floor
I've been with her once of twice
In my dreams it felt so nice
I'd do exactly what tose eyes told me
There's never a smile on your face
Always a gesture of disgrace
Obviously you're unhappy with my stares that I hold far too long
Of course I know that it is wrong
But deep down inside I know you like it
In my little hide
Upon the rack I'm stretched and split
Demeted as I do my bit
Whatever I could do to make you smile
I can't wait to get to bed
Not so I can rest my head
It means I can dream about you more

When It's All Over We Still Have To Clear Up Lyrics By Snow Patrol

You're not fair
Telling me
You faked every orgasm
You've had with me
That's just fine
Now it's over
And I'm out here
Banging my head
After all the dancing
And spilling beer all over the place
I lie out here
In disgrace
You've had your fun
Kissed some bloke you shouldn't have
Right in front of me
Punched him to the floor
I could have killed him there
But I got thrown out
I'll get him some other time
When he leasts expects it

Get Balsamic Vinegar... Quick You Fool Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Cut my eyes out, dear
So I can't see your smug grin
You're right you always win
Untie my hands now
I'm game up to a point
And we're well past bedtime now
All this time away
And I'm freezing cold now
I try hard not to laugh
As she trips up on the step
And her look turns me to stone
I'm closer to the truth
She hates being on her own
But fuck her I'm leaving tonight
Why should I live this way
When I could be with someone else
I don't want to hurt her feelings
But she's a crazy fucked up bitch

Wednesday, September 24, 2008

Same Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Maybe somewhere else
Will not be half as cold as me
The curtains drawn the winter sun
Makes patterns on your face
It looks like some kaleidoscopic breathing exercise

It's the same [x6]

Baby won't you breathe

Hold me in your freezing arms before we have to go
Bent a little but it's not because I know the truth
The windsheild of your little car is frosted through the glass
The clear heart of air appears as we shiver on the seats

It's the same [x6]

Treat it as a test [x2]
Baby wont you breathe [x2]
It's the same [x6]

Chasing Cars Lyrics By Snow Patrol

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Make Up Lyrics By Snow Patrol

If I could understand this better
I might be a little closer to you
Brushing my face with her hair
As she pushes past towards the door
That's a little ticklish but please just don't stop
She's probably heard this a million times before
The sweep of her brush is like a gentle lick
It seems to make her like everything you want
Cause if you didn't you'd want her soon enough
That's a little ticklish but please just don't stop

Gleaming Auction Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I'll get tired of the heart attacks
Every time it rings
I'll put myself on the waiting list
And get it all cleared up
You're the one with the attitude
Don't try and make me out
To be the root of the evil in
The whole rotten affair

Lie back and suffer now
We've both earned our reward

Buried deep in the telegram
I'm sure I never got
Was any clue of the whereabouts
Of all the things I'd lost
Just because you were right before
Doesn't mean you're right
To make up now would just vindicate
Every doubt I had

It's not as simple as
How much you think you care
You would never know
When to take the hint
Broken glass aside
My feelings stay the same
Covered head to toe
In blood and fear and spite

Mahogany Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I could help myself to something
Like a little bit of revelation
You could be the one to help me help myself
Maybe if I could see exactly what was in your way I'd move it for you
Don't always need to do it by yourself
UI'm not trying to find a way to get into your bed
I'll just sing for you
Until you fall asleep, then I will go
I never understood how you should feel
You've been left out
I'd never do that
It's all in your imagination, dear

Grazed Knees Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I'm trying not to stare, it's too late
The blankets over there, if you like
I'm broken and I'm colder than hell
I should've said I'd not come back here

Your breakfast will get cold
I really have to go

It's easier to lie and be safe
Time and time again I'm half stalled
One giant leap of faith is easy
When everyone you ask is so sure

Just give a second thought
What if we don't get caught

Just say you love me now
And forget this whole row
Just save your energy
For making up with me

How To Be Dead Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Please don't go crazy, if I tell you the truth
No you don't know what happened
And you never will if
You don't listen to me while I talk to the wall
This blanket is freezing, it's been out in the hall
Where you've had me for hours
Till I'm sure what I want
But darling I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart tell me what's up I won't stop no way

Please keep your hands down
And stop raising your voice
It's hardly what I'd be doing if you gave me a choice
It's a simple suggestion can you give me sometime
So just say yes or no
Why can't you shoulder the blame
Coz both my shoulders are heavy
From the weight of us both
You're a big boy now so let's not talk about growth
You've not heard a single word I have said...
Oh, my God

Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
I haven't made half the mistakes
That you've listed so far
Oh baby let me explain something
It's all down to drugs
At least I remember taking them and not a lot else
It seems I've stepped over lines
You've drawn again and again
But if the ecstacy's in the wit is definitely out
Dr. Jekyll is wrestling Hyde for my pride

Make Love To Me Forever Lyrics By Snow Patrol

It took half the time
I am still afraid
So stay by my side
And hold on to my hand
Try to teach me that
I'm alright, I guess
But there's so much wrong
But there's so much right
I guess we'll agree
To differ on one thing

Tiny Little Fractures Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Is there a place I can go
Is there a light to get me there
If I've forgotten what to say
It's because all words are dust
If this is really what you think
How come you won't look me in the eye
All this crying in your sleep
As I lie awake beside

Is there a T-shirt I can wear
Coz I am soaking look at me
What do you mean I don't love you
I am standing here, aren't I
Maybe you thought of it first
Maybe I get all the praise
Is there a place I can go
Is there a light to get me there

One Hundred Things You Should Have Done In Bed Lyrics By Snow Patrol

I haven't left here yet, but I'm trying
I'm still tied to the bed
Can you come here?
When you come, would you please bring a knife
And cure me down
Cause this is larger than life and I'm frightened
100 things you should have done in bed
But you never had the chance to try them
At least the dog has a smile on its face
I'm drained and I'm dry and I'm sore
It's not that bad if she could be here all the time
It would kill me
I think I've been broken in tow and I can't scream

The Finish Line Lyrics By Snow Patrol

The earth is warm next to my ear
Insects noise is all that I hear
A magic trick makes the world disappear
The skies are dark, they're dark but they're clear

A distant motorcade and suddenly there's joy
The snow and tickertape blurs all my senses numb
It's like the finish line where everything just ends
The crack of radios seems close enough to touch

Cold water, cleaning my wounds
A side parade, with a single balloon
I'm done with this, I'm counting to ten
Blue as seas, running to them

I feel like I am watching everything from space
And in a minute I hear my name and I wake
I think the finish line's a good place we could start
Take a deep breath, take in all that you could want

Ask Me How I Am Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Has nobody asked you how you are?
You look like you might not last the day
I wouldn't have made it very far
So we'd make a good team right away
I've not made amends for yesterday
My lip won't get me out of it
Waking up dreading hearing tales
Of all my nightmares being true
I take a breath and grab the phone
Secretly hoping you're not home
I'd leave a message - I was out
Out of my mind on drink and drugs

Velocity Girl Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Oh velocity girl
What makes you go so fast
Is it the speed you're taking
Since you gave up the drinking
Oh velocity girl
I can't keep up with you
Can't stand to be alone
Think you should be with me
Just want to stay here in your arms
Oh velocity girl
Try harder to stay put
Understand me when I say
Please don't leave today
Oh velocity girl
I don't know what I'm thinking
Since I gave up the drinking
Please just stay with me
Just want to stay here in your arms
Oh velocity girl
Can I though your hand
Can I move it here
Don't you understand?
Just want to stay here in your arms
Just want to stay here in your arms
Just want to stay here in your arms
Just want to stay here in your arms

Make This Go On Forever Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Please don't let this turn into something it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could

All that I keep thinking throughout this whole flight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

We have got through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness [x2]

And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness [x2]

Last Shot Ringing In My Ears Lyrics By Snow Patrol

Take her home
Take her past this evening
I'm not sure
Sure if I believe you
You carry a gun for fun
You use it twice as easy
I'm sure she is
She is someone's daughter
I couldn't even feel that it was
Wrapped around my head
I don't know what she's done
I don't even want to think about it
She was beautiful
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
I saw everything
Things I hoped I'd never see
She got away from him
And got on a plane this morning
I couldn't even feel like it was
Wrapped around my head
I'm coming down
Coming down the next day
