The Song

There's this one song that embodies almost 10 years of the most significant relationship of my life. Not just the lyrics - the melody, the rhythm, the feeling in it. My mind's been occupied lately, but this is always there somewhere. "Never gonna be easy, was it? Didn't think it'd be so much fun!". It was there when we started and still there 10 years in. Has to be special:)  This deserves it's own post in my "listening lately" list. 

 

 

 

SNOW PATROL

"I Won't Let You Go"

No one can ever follow
No one can ever know
Wind up the spinning top and watch it go, watch it go
Never gonna be easy, was it?
You didn't think it'd be so much fun
Smile comes despite the danger - get some, get some

There's something happening here
There's something here that I just can't explain
I know I'm where I belong
Deep down inside I am no longer lost!

I won't let you go
(This is what you really want)
So don't let go of me
(This is what you asked for)
I wanted something more
(This is what you really want)
I wanted this right here
(This is what you asked for)

No one can ever follow
No one can ever know
Wind up the spinning top and watch it go, watch it go
Never gonna be easy, was it?
You didn't think it'd be so much fun
Smile comes despite the danger - get some, get some

There's something happening here
There's something here that I just can't explain
I know I'm where I belong
Deep down inside I am no longer lost!

I won't let you go
(This is what you really want)
So don't let go of me
(This is what you asked for)
I wanted something more
(This is what you really want)
I wanted this right here
(This is what you asked for)

We laughed until it hurt
(This is what you really want)
And it hurt until we wept
(This is what you asked for)
The dead upon our feet
(This is what you really want)
But there's joy somehow in me
(This is what you asked for)

You're not as strong as I am
You're not as strong as I am
This is what you really want
This what you asked for
This is what you really want
This what you asked for

I won't let you go
(This is what you really want)
So don't let go of me
(This is what you asked for)
I wanted something more
(This is what you really want)
I wanted this right here
(This is what you asked for)

This is like 1, 2, 3, 4 now
Come back to carry us now
1, 2, 3, 4 now now
(This is what you asked for)

This is like 1, 2, 3, 4 now
Come back to carry us now
1, 2, 3, 4 now now
(This is what you asked for)
