Radio Paradise (mobile)

God, that was strange to see you again
Introduced by a friend of a friend
Smiled and said, "Yes, I think we've met before"
In that instant it started to pour

Captured a taxi despite all the rain
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
And all of that time you thought I was sad
I was trying to remember your name

This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin
You tried to reach deep but you couldn't get in
And now you're outside me, you see all the beauty
Repent all your sin

Nothing but time and a face that you'll lose
I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose
I'll write you a postcard, I'll send you the news
From the house down the road from real love

Live through this and you won't look back
Live through this and you won't look back
Live through this and you won't look back

There's one thing I have to say so I'll be brave
You were what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I'm not sorry I met you
I'm not sorry it's over
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save

Baby_M Feb 10, 2011 - 10:28	I can understand why some people might have a strong emotional connection to it. I find it just a little too precious, and pretentious. Your mileage, of course, may vary. [ Reply ]

robco1 Mar 09, 2010 - 11:59	thewiseking wrote: um, sorry, this one is not about death in any literal sense Jeff Buckley wrote "Lover You Should Have Come Over" about his breakup with his girlfriend. I went to a memorial concert ten years after his death and one of the performers covered the song. I did okay until the bridge, and on the verse "It's never over / A kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder..." the guy in front of me collapsed in grief. Within seconds it was painfully clear for whom the central metaphor of the song was no metaphor. A song is what you bring to it. Great ones touch us and make us examine who we are and what we feel. As this one has done for me today. [ Reply ]

Oh, great. The next song is Jeff Buckley's Last Goodbye . Both beautiful, but I picked a bad week to give up ether. [ Reply ]

cbahlai Nov 24, 2009 - 06:51	Okay, this is one of my favourite songs ever. It takes me back to roadtrips I took in the summer of 2007. I'm so happy that RP has picked it up! Yay for Canadian Content. [ Reply ]
