The Reindeer Section - You Are My Joy

I won't leave you out of my will
But I will leave you out of my mind
For now
I won't be there to break your sweet heart
But not being there might break your sweet heart

You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy

If I could cradle you into my arms
I would cradle you tight in my arms
Always
So don't be scared of all the hurtful words
'Cause in the end, they'll hurt themselves much more

You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy

You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy
You are my joy, you are my joy

Snow Patrol - Lifening

A hand upon my forehead
The joke and then the laugh
Waking up in your arms
A place to call my own

This is all I ever wanted from life

Ireland in the world cup
Either north or south
The fanclub on the jukebox
The birds and yes the bees

This is all I ever wanted from life

Words of reassurance
But only if they're true
Just some simple kindness
No vengeance from the gods

This is all I ever wanted from life

To share what I've been given
Some kids eventually
And be for them what I've had
A father like my dad

Snow Patrol - Talking About Hope

The last of sunlight seems to speak
And it cuts between us now like borders
And from these new countries the lines are weak
And we no longer hear each other

But I know my name
And I know your name

And I'm not talking about hope
And I'm not talking about fire
I'm just trying to make sense of this desire
So put your hand on my head
And put your hand on my heart
And please don't tell me you can't tell them apart

I fell in love with you again
But I don't know how to tell you of it
Through the distance now to then
I still see the dark that you lit

And I know my name
And I know your name

And I'm not talking about hope
And I'm not talking about fire
I'm just trying to make sense of this desire
So put your hand on my head
And put your hand on my heart
And God don't tell me you can't tell them apart

We've finally figured it out
And it's not meant to make sense
It's just meant to be said in present tense
So in the spirit of that
I'm in love with you now
And if you want we can show each other how
Let's show each other how

Snow Patrol - Just Say Yes

I'm running out of ways to make you see
I want you to stay here beside me
I won't be okay and I won't pretend I am
So just tell me today and take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand
Please take my hand

Just say yes
Just say there's nothing holding you back
It's not a test, nor a trick of the mind
Only love

It's so simple and you know it is
You know it is
We can't be to and fro like this
All our lives
You're the only way to me
The path is clear
What do I have to say to you?
For God's sake, dear
For God's sake, dear
For God's sake, dear
For God's sake, dear
For God's sake, dear

Just say yes
Just say there's nothing holding you back
It's not a test, nor a trick of the mind
Only love

I can feel your heart beat through my shirt
This was all I wanted, all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want

Just say yes
Just say there's nothing holding you back
It's not a test, nor a trick of the mind
Only love

Just say yes
Cause I'm aching, I know you are too
For the touch of your warm skin
As I breathe you in

Snow Patrol - Chocolate

This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw
Final straw in the
Roof of my mouth
As I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
Scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth, I'm lost for words

What have I done?
It's too late for that
What have I become?
Truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask
This time

Snow Patrol - The Golden Floor

Tell me that you wanna dance

I wanna feel your pulse on mine

Just treat me like a stolen glance

To yourself

A dark shape on a golden floor

A sleeping planet with a molten core

From above we'd cut a slow eight shape

And much more

I'm a peasant in your princess arms

Penniless with only charm

As we're leveled by the low, hot lights

And disarmed

I'm not afraid of anything even time

It'll eke away at everything but we'll be fine

I'm folded in the bread you made

You're cold until my body bathes

You in the heat I kept aside

All these days

I'm not afraid of anything even time

It'll eke away at everything but we'll be fine

I'm not afraid of anything even time

It'll eke away at everything but we'll be fine

Snow Patrol - The Symphony

Wooden floors
Wooden floors whisper
And they creak
Under your sockless feet
A secret door
A door undiscovered
You knock so gently
In case you're heard
A record plays
A song that you've not heard
It is perfect
It is home
Everything
Now everything's different
It is sweeter
On your tongue

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

A symphony
Slow music of longing
Plays in movements
Inside your head
There are no ghosts
No ghosts that can shake you
Like they used to
Anymore

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

You can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get

Snow Patrol - Signal Fire

The perfect words never crossed my mind
Cause there was nothin' in there but you
I felt every ounce of me screaming out
But the sound was trapped deep in me
All I wanted just sped right past me
While I was rooted fast to the earth
I could be stuck here for a thousand years
Without your arms to drag me out

There you are standing right in front of me
There you are standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close, cause I need you to guide me to safety

No, I don't wanna wait forever
No, I don't wanna wait forever

In the confusion and the aftermath
You are my signal fire
The only resolution and the only joy
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes

There you are standing right in front of me
There you are standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close, cause I need you to guide me to safety

There you are standing right in front of me
There you are standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close, cause I need you to guide me to safety

No, I don't wanna wait forever
No, I don't wanna wait forever
No, I don't wanna wait forever
No, I don't wanna wait forever

Snow Patrol - Run (Reworked)

I'll sing it one last time for you

Then we really have to go

You've been the only thing that's right

In all I've done

And I can barely look at you

But every single time I do

I know we'll make it anywhere

Away from here

Light up, light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can hardly speak I understand

Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes

Makes it so hard not to cry

And as we say our long goodbye

I nearly do

Light up, light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can hardly speak I understand

Why you can't raise your voice to say

Slower slower

We don't have time for that

All I want's to find an easy way

To get out of our little heads

Hush Hush my dear

We're bound to be afraid

Even if it's just for a few days

Making up for all this mess

Light up, light up

As if you have a choice

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I'll be right beside you dear

Snow Patrol - Open Your Eyes

All this feels strange and untrue

And I won't waste a minute without you

My bones ache, my skin feels cold

And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts

And I won't feel these slices and cuts

I want so much to open your eyes

'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Get up, get out, get away from these liars

Cause they don't get your soul or your fire

ake my hand, knot your fingers through mine

And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now

e can do what we like anywhere

I want so much to open your eyes

'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

ell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

All this feels strange and untrue

And I won't waste a minute without you

Snow Patrol - A Youth Written In Fire

Remember the first time we got high

We felt like the rampant lion's roar

We were elastic and then we were healed

Healed in the blinking of an eye

And then when the dawn cracked over us

The day wouldn't hit us hard at all

We could ride the morning into night again

We knew the days were there to waste

But these days that light hits so heavy

And those days feel like another life

This isn't like the first time anymore

And I've been chasing that too long

Digging for the lost memories

Of a youth written in fire

You've always said it's not too late for me

Well I sure am listening to you now

Believe in me so I can trust myself

'Cause there's a first time for that too

Remember the first time that we kissed

It felt like a planet forming

Though we were just novices at this

It felt like an ancient wisdom

There was lightning then

And those songs were all proved true

No wonder I still think so much about you

But these days my heart feels too heavy

And those days are someone else's life

This isn't like the first time anymore

And I've been chasing that too long

Digging for the lost memories

Of a youth written in fire

You've always said it's not too late for me

Well I sure am listening to you now

Believe in me so I can trust myself

'Cause there's a first time for that too

Snow Patrol - Set The Fire To The Third Bar (Reworked)

Snow Patrol - Wild Horses

Ooh, you wanted it too late
You wanted it too late now
I can't keep track of all your tears
Been crying rivers way too long
Ooh, I'm tired of loneliness
But I'm way more tired of wasting time
So still you barely look alive
These shocks will do you so much good

Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you
And summon everything you've held up in reserve
Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink
Try to keep your heart on higher shelves for once

What are you holding back
I know you've wild horses enough inside of you
(Stop holding back)
Now's not the time to learn
Serenity, it's gone to red from blue
(Stop holding back)
I think you want this love
And I know you don't want time without it
(Stop holding back)
I know I don't know much
But I do know when to rage
(Stop holding back)

Ooh, you wanted it to work
You wanted it to work so much
But it's been broken in your hands
The minute that it found your hands
Ooh, you're trying not to blink
For once you want to see what is
Ooh, it hasn't finished you
It's only that it feels that way

Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you
And summon everything you've held up in reserve
Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink
Try to keep your heart on higher shelves for once

What are you holding back
I know you've wild horses enough inside of you
(Stop holding back)
Now's not the time to learn
Serenity, it's gone to red from blue
(Stop holding back)
I think you want this love
And I know you don't want time without it
(Stop holding back)
I know I don't know much
But I do know when to rage
(Stop holding back)

Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars (Reworked)

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?

Snow Patrol - Crack The Shutters (Reworked)

You cool your bed-warm hands down
On the broken radiator
When you lay them freezing on me
I mumble can you wake me later
But I don't really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop you
You run your hands from my neck
To my chest

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Its been minutes, it's been days
It's been all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillow
Your hills and valleys
Are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber
I dream all this again

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Snow Patrol - If There's a Rocket Tie Me To It

Two weeks late like a surplus reprieve
I found a hair the length of yours on my sleeve
I wound it round and round my finger so tight
It turned to purple and a pulse formed inside

And I knew the beat 'cause it matched your own beat
I still remember it from our chest to chest and feet to feet
The easy silence then was a sweet relief to this hush
Of ovens, aeroplanes and distant car horns

A fire a fire, you can only take what you can carry
A pulse your pulse, it's the only thing I can remember
I break you don't, I was always set to self destruct though
The fire the fire, it cracks and barks like primal music

I said I knew the beat 'cause it matched your own beat
It's become my engine my own source of heat
The sea between us only amplifies the sound waves
Every hum and echo and crash paints my cave

A fire a fire, you can only take what you can carry
A pulse your pulse, it's the only thing I can remember
I break you don't, I was always set to self destruct though
The fire the fire, it cracks and barks like primal music

A fire a fire, you can only take what you can carry
A pulse your pulse, it's the only thing I can remember
I break you don't, I was always set to self destruct though
The fire the fire, it cracks and barks like primal music

Snow Patrol - This Isn't Everything You Are

You can’t find the phone, so you can call it off
But it might be for the best
You can’t walk away, anyway
Because you’ve nowhere else to go

Is he worth all this, is it a simple yes?
Cause if you have to think, it’s f*cked
Feels like you loved him more, than he loved you
And you wish you’d never met

Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over
Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over

You’ve been up all night, and the night before
You’ve lost count of drinks and time
And your friends keep calling, worried sick
And there’s strangers everywhere

Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over
Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over

And in one little moment
It all implodes
But this isn’t everything you are

Breathe deeply in the silence
No sudden moves
This isn’t everything you are

Just take the hand that’s offered
And hold on tight
This isn’t everything you are

There’s joy not far from here, right
I know there is
This isn’t everything you are

When you took the call
How could you know
That he’d slipped away last night
And you wish you’d went home, days ago
To say goodbye or just hello

Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over
Don’t keel over now
Don’t keel over

And in one little moment
It all implodes
But this isn’t everything you are

Breathe deeply in the silence
No sudden moves
This isn’t everything you are

Just take the hand that’s offered
And hold on tight
This isn’t everything you are

There’s joy not far from here, right
I know there is
This isn’t everything you are

This isn’t everything you are

This isn’t everything you are

Snow Patrol - Heal Me

Can you heal me, baby?
I've been dancing in this fire for way too long
But I kind of like it
Oh I like it coz it's more dangerous than me
There's a siren somewhere
But I'm pretty sure it's only in my head
So tell me how'd you hear it?
Is there something supernatural in your bones?

Oh this is love like wildness coursing through you like a drug
And this is hurt like kindness breaking you with gentle hands

I call out your name, it feels like a song I know so well
And it whispers and roars like an orchestra
You call out my name like no one before, it sounds like I...
Am called to a home that I never had

Can you heal me, baby?
I've been wasted in the arms of everyone
I wasn't looking for you
But I think maybe I was and didn't know

Oh this is love like wildness coursing through you like a drug
And this is hurt like kindness breaking you with gentle hands

I call out your name, it feels like a song I know so well
It whispers and roars like an orchestra
You call out my name like no one before, it sounds like I...
Am called to a home that I never had

Snow Patrol - Give Me Strength

I choked back tears today because I can’t begin to say how much you've shaped this boy,
these last ten years or more.

My friends we've seen it all, triumphs to drunken falls and our bones are broken still,
but our hearts are joined until,
time slips its tired hand into our tired hands we've years 'til that day
and so much more to say.

You give the strength to me, a strength I never had, I was a mess you see,
I'd lost the plot so bad, you dragged me up and out,
out of the darkest place, there's not a single doubt when I can see your faces.

My friends we've seen it all, when it made no sense at all,
you dare to light my path and found the beauty in the aftermath.

Let me hold you up like you held me up, it's too long to never say this,
you must know I've always thought,

You give the strength to me, a strength I never had,
I was a mess you see, I'd lost the plot so bad,
you dragged me up and out, out of the darkest place,
there's not a single doubt when I can see your faces.

You give the strength to me, a strength I never had,
I was a mess you see, I'd lost the plot so bad,
you dragged me up and out, out of the darkest place,
there's not a single doubt when I can see your faces.

Snow Patrol - Empress

You're angry but you don't know how to be that yet
It seems too much went wrong and all at once
Resistance seems impossible from down this low
And surely no one else can feel like this

But on the streets
You can see them gathering
And in your heart
You know they feel like you do

Sound and pulse and volume
Hands just reaching other hands
This is almost overload
I said almost overload
Friends and foes and princes
Are all just human in the end
This is so damn simple, yeah
It's so damn simple

So standing in the steady throne of restless hope
You don't feel like an outcast anymore
And something deep inside of you has waken up
And you know that nothing's gonna be the same again

And on the streets
You can see for what seems miles
Because in your heart
You know they feel like you do

Sound and pulse and volume
Hands just reaching other hands
This is almost overload
I said almost overload
Friends and foes and princes
Are all just human in the end
This is so damn simple, yeah
It's so damn simple

Your mind won't be still
It may not again
You don't think it will
But it will, it will

Sound and pulse and volume
Hands just reaching other hands
This is so damn simple, yeah
It's so damn simple
This is so damn simple, yeah
This is so damn simple
This is so damn simple, yeah
This is so damn simple
