Chasing Cars

"You're like a dog chasing a car. You'll never catch it and you wouldn't know what to do with it if you did."

thats what Gary Lightbody's (lead singer, Snow Patrol) father told him in reference to a girl Lightbody was infatuated with. Gary dint feel too bad about it... nope, he went on to make a really sucessful band and showed his dad who'd be chasing whom ;)

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?

a tribute to a really amazing song, and an ironic source of inspiration :-)
