Lyrics by Coldplay...

Some (of many!) favorite songs by Coldplay...



From Rush of Bloood...

Amsterdam

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And if I, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole

Come here, of my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I've got to get out of this hole

But time is on your side
It's on your side
Now I'm pushing you down
And all around
It's no cause for concern

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
I know I'm dead on the surface
But I'm screaming underneath

And time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down
And all around
Oh, it's no cause for concern

Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on the edge; tied to a noose
Sick to the stomach
Say what you mean but it won't change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge; tied to the noose
And you came along and you cut me loose



From X&Y...

Square One

You're in control is there anywhere you want to go
You're in control is there anything you want to know
The future's for discovering
The space in which we're travelling

From the top of the first page
To the end of the last day
From the start in your own way
You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are

Under the surface trying to break through
Deciphering the codes in you
I need a compass draw me a map
I'm on the top I can't get back

The first line of the first page
To the end in the last place you were looking
From the start in your own way
You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

Politik

Look at earth from outer space
Everyone has found a place
Give me time and give me space
Give me real; don't give me fake

Give me strength reserve control
Give me heart and give me soul
Give me time; give us a kiss
Tell me your politik

And open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes

Give me one cause one is best
In confusion confidence
Give me peace of mind and trust
Don't forgot the rest of us

Give me strength reserve control
Give me heart and give me soul
Wounds that heal and cracks that fix
Tell me your politik

And open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
Just open up your eyes

Oh give me love over, love over, love over this
Oh give me love over, love over, love over this
