Lights Will Guide You Home, and Ignite Your Bones, And I Will Try To Fix You!

Maybe it was hearing "Fix You" sung by an old geezer (see yesterdays blog) but I was really affected by the lyrics of this Coldplay song. There are lots of ways to interpret the meaning; I just know I was moved enough to write down all the words! Moved enough that I've been singing it over and over myself (not in public of course!). Perhaps I am gearing up to join Young@Heart! Anyway.....

"When you try your best but you don't succeed,
When you get what you want but not what you need,
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep,
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face,
When you lose something you can't replace,
When you love someone but it goes to waste,
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home, And ignite your bones, And I will try to fix you.

And high up above or down below, When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know, Just what you're worth.

Lights will guide you home, And ignite your bones, And I will try to fix you.

Tear stream down your face, When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face, And I

Tears stream down your face, I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face, And I

Lights will guide you home, And ignite your bones, And I will try to fix you.
