12. CAREFUL WHERE YOU STAND

 

My fav Coldplay bside ever, I don't know why but I love it :wub:

 

 

I feel safe, I feel warm when you're here,

When I do no wrong,

I am cured, when I'm by your side.

 

I'm alright, alright.

 

I am safe, when I am with you,

And I feel warm, If you want me to,

I am cured, when I'm by your side.

 

I'm alright.

 

Careful where you stand,

Careful where you lay your head.

It's true we're always looking out for one another.

 

I feel safe, when I am with you,

I feel warm, when you want me to,

I am cured when you are around.

 

I'm alright.

 

Careful where you stand,

Careful where you lay your head,

It's true we're always looking out for one another.

 

So I like a quiet time please,

Yeah, I like a quiet time.

Careful where you stand,

Now, careful where you stand

11. GREEN EYES

 

Great song, I often get this one stuck in my head for days at a time

 

Sorry about the vid, is the only good quality one I could find

 

Honey you are a rock

Upon which I stand

And I come here to talk

I hope you understand

 

The green eyes

Yeah the spotlight

Shines upon you

 

And how could

Anybody

Deny you

 

I came here with a load

And it feels so much lighter

Now I met you

 

Honey you should know

That I could never go on

Without you

 

Green eyes

 

Honey you are the sea

Upon which I float

And I came here to talk

I think you should know

 

That green eyes

You're the one that I wanted to find

And anyone who tried to deny you,

Must be out of their mind

 

Because I came here with a load

And it feels so much lighter since I met you

 

And honey you should know,

That I could never go on

Without you

 

Green eyes, green eyes, ohohoh...

 

Honey you are a rock

Upon which I stand.

10. SPEED OF SOUND


Kicking off the top ten with a brilliant song, Speed of Sound gets stuck so easily in my head...Often heard Michael play this on his keyboard :lol: He was actually very good ^_^




How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?
Where To, where do I go?
If you never try, then you'll never know.
How long do I have to climb,
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

Look up, I look up at night,
Planets are moving at the speed of light.
Climb up, up in the trees,
every chance that you get,
is a chance you seize.
How long am I gonna stand,
with my head stuck under the sand?
I'll start before I can stop,
before I see things the right way up.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand?

Ideas that you'll never find,
All the inventors could never design.
The buildings that you put up,
Japan and China all lit up.
The sign that I couldn't read,
or a light that I couldn't see,
some things you have to believe,
but others are puzzles, puzzling me.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah when you see it then you'll understand?

All those signs, I knew what they meant.
Some things you can invent.
Some get made, and some get sent,
Ooh?
Birds go flying at the speed of sound,
to show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
if you could see it then you'd understand,
ah, when you see it then you'll understand?

9. CLOCKS


Brilliant tune very easy to listen to, never get tired of this song B)




The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead singing

Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head and a
Trouble that cant be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed singing

You are
You are

Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know singing

Come out upon my seas,
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease, singing

You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are

And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are
You are

Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go

8. SWALLOWED IN THE SEA


A personal favourite. I don't know why but I absolutely love this song :wub:




You cut me down a tree
And brought it back to me
And that's what made me see
Where I was going wrong

You put me on a shelf
And kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself
You can only blame me

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with me

And I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
Or swallowed in the sea

You put me on a line
And hung me out to dry
And darling that's when I
Decided to go to see you

You cut me down to size
And opened up my eyes
Made me realize
What I could not see

And I could write a book
The one they'll say that shook
The world, and then it took
It took it back from me

And I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
And you'll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea

Ooh...

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with me

The streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with me

Oh what good is it to live
With nothing left to give
Forget but not forgive
Not loving all you see

All the streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea

You belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
Yeah, you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea

7. WHITE SHADOWS

 

Great tune, great lyrics, excellent live :yahoo:

 

 

When I was a young boy I tried to listen

And I wanna feel like that

Little white shadows - blink and miss them

Part of a system I am

 

If you ever feel like something's missing

Things you never understand

Little white shadows sparkle and glisten

Part of a system plan

 

All this noise I'm waking up

All this space I'm taking up

All this sound is breaking up

 

Wooaaooh

 

Maybe you'll get what you wanted

Maybe you'll stumble upon it

Everything you ever wanted

In a permanent state

 

Maybe you'll know when you see it

Maybe if you say it you'll mean it

And when you find it you'll keep it

In a permanent state, a permanent state

 

When I was a young boy I tried to listen

Don't you wanna feel like that?

You're part of the human race

All of the stars in the outer space

Part of a system plan

 

All this noise I'm waking up

All this space I'm taking up

I cannot hear you're breaking up

 

Woaaooh.

 

Maybe you'll get what you wanted

Maybe you'll stumble upon it

Everything you ever wanted

In a permanent state

 

Maybe you'll know when you see it

Maybe if you say it you'll mean it

And when you find it you'll keep it

In a permanent state, a permanent state

 

Swimmin' on a sea of faces

Tired of the human race

An answer now is what I need

See it in the new sun risin

See it break on your horizon, oh

Come on love stay with me

^ Great choice!

 

"White Shadows" is my fave song from X&Y (the next is "Talk" and then "Speed of Sound")

6. SHIVER

 

Amazing song, the music goes at just the right speed, and is awesome live

 

 

So I looked in your direction,

But you paid me no attention, do you.

I know you don't listen to me.

'cause you say you see straight me, don't you.

 

On and on from the moment I wake,

To the moment I sleep,

I'll be there by your side,

Just you try and stop me,

I'll be waiting in line,

Just to see if you care.

 

Did she want me to change?

But I change for good.

And I want you to know.

But you always get your way,

I wanted to say,

 

(Chorus)

 

Don't you Shiver? Shiver, Shiver

 

I'll always be waiting for you,

So you know how much I need ya,

But you never even see me, do you?

 

And this is my final chance of getting you.

On and on from the moment I wake....

Did she want me to change?...

 

(Chorus)

 

Sing it loud and clear.

I'll always be waiting for you. (x3)

Yeah I'll always be waiting for you.

 

And it's you I see, but you don't see me.

And it's you I hear, so loud and clear.

I sing it loud and clear.

And I'll always be waiting for you,.

 

So I look in your direction,

But you pay me no attention,

And you know how much I need you,

But you never even seen me.

5. TROUBLE


Great song, I haven't seen this clip is such a long time




Oh no, I see
A spider web, it's tangled up with me
And I lost my head
The thought of all the stupid things I said
Oh no what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle
Oh I turned to run
The thought of all the stupid things I've done

And oh, I never meant to cause you trouble
And oh, and I never meant to do you wrong
And oh, well if I ever caused you trouble
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm

Oh no I see
A spider web and it's me in the middle
So I twist and turn
Here am I in my little bubble

Singing out, oh I never meant to cause you trouble
Oh, I never meant to do you wrong
Oh, well if I ever caused you trouble
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm

They spun a web for me
They spun a web for me
They spun a web for me
