My Private Nation

Chasing Cars

by Snow Patrol
Album:Eyes Open (2006)


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?
