Yeah, Cris, it's "When every step ...".

 

Everybody: after the first "That's riiiight" it sounds like "Let's take a breath, jump over the [sky or sight or something like it]". What do you think?

 

this sounds good, to me at first it sounded like LETS TAKE A BREATH CHILD, SOMETHING SOMETHING

and the second time around i think its how can you know if you WONT even try

 

yep, I think the same :)

and the second time of "that you don't want me there in your life" it starting to souns as "that you don't want me there in [the line or something]" but I think that is different...

It sounds good, I have the some doubt (sight or sky?) and "That's right" is not very clear to me

"What If" - Coldplay

 

what if there was no lies

nothing wrong, nothing right

what if there was no time

and no reason or rhyme

what if you should decide

that you don't want me there by your side

that you don't want me there in your life

 

what if I got it wrong

and no poem or song

could put right what I got wrong

or make you feel I belong

what if you should decide

that you don't want me there by your side

that you don't want me there in your life

 

oo-oo-oo that's right

let's take a breath [...]

oo-oo-oo that's right

how can you know it if you don't even try

oo-oo-oo that's right

 

when every step that you take

could be your biggest mistake

and we could bend or we could break

well, that's just the risk that you take

what if you should decide

that you don't want me there by your side

that you don't want me there in your life

 

oo-oo-oo that's right

let's take a breath [...]

oo-oo-oo that's right

how can you know it if you won't even try

oo-oo-oo that's right

 

oo-oo-oo that's right

let's take a breath [...]

oo-oo-oo that's right

you know that darkness always turns into light

oh-oh-oh that's right

anyway i have to go sleep now since its getting on 2.00 here, i need sleep so bad. anyway i tried my best on square one, white shadows and speed of sound, so if people keep building on and editing what i did, we will have lyrics to all of the songs in no time........wow in a short amount of time we got lots of work done guys, well done.

"That's right" is not very clear to me

 

Now that you mentioned it...

You can hear it clearly right at the end, when he doesn't sing it as a falsetto. He says "Ohhhh, that's riiiight". Unless if you mean he changes it right at the end but not before? Ah, that Chris. I'd forgotten how much fun it is to decipher his lyrics... :lol:

these are doubtful

Is the first line actually "what if there was no light?"

what if

 

i think i got it....i think it is "let's take a breath and try to hold it inside" i've listened many times and it sounds correct...someone double check me on that and tell me if that's it...

Don't know, could be. What do you think?

Yeah, that's probably it! :)

Let's take a breath, Jump over the side

How can you know it if you don't even try

Ooo-oo-ooo, Let's ride
