Featured Replies

Hi i was just wondering what the additional lyrics were to this song, on the live dvd. I have the dvd which i believe shows the lyrics, but its at home and im all the way up at school. if you could help that'd be great!!!! i just love what they did to that song! the perfect finale

Cause in the end there's only us

 

And oh my friend there's only love

 

And in the cave they're timing us

 

Cause in the end there's only love

I always thought it was

 

cuz in the end....there's only us

and in the end....there's only love

all (or aww) my friend....they're timing us

cuz in the end...there's only love.

 

i'm pretty shit when it comes to lyrics tho.

When it comes to the Live 2003 version, the lyrics I posted above are definately right....however, I have heard other versions and Chris sounds like he's bluffing his way through it haha.

i'm sure you're right, but i just can't make out the "cave" bit.

Yeah I only know cause I googled it and then listened to it and saw they were right.

Which live version is this from? Because I know the lyrics I posted above are correct for the 2003 live DVD but I have heard other versions where they don't fit.:confused:

I think that would be the Glastonbury 02 version...

And you're my friend, there's only love

My thoughts

 

I've been watching the Live 2003 DVD tonight and it ends with Life is For Living, a short song, but one that has no lyrics (although it's listed) or any other link on the official Coldplay site. And if you search for it here, you won't find anything.

Yet for me, the concert performance and the lyrics of Life is For living are, in capsule form, what Coldplay is all about.

 

Here are the lyrics, but the music makes it come alive! If you have the DVD (it's not on the Live 2003 CD) have a lsiten and let me know if you agree with me :

 

 

Life is For Living

 

 

Now I never meant

To do you wrong

That's what I came here to say

 

But if I was wrong

Then I'm sorry

I don't let it stand in our way

 

As my head just aches

When I think of

The things that I shouldn't have done

 

But, life is for living

We all know

And I don't wanna live it alone

 

Sing

Ah, ah, oh

Sing

Ah, ah, oh

And just think

Ah, ah, oh

 

Cause in the end

there's only us

And oh my friend

There's only love[/color]

 

And in the cave

They're timing us

Cause in the end

There's only love

 

 

 

After all, there really is, only love!

Way to bump a four year old thread.

 

And I thought one of the lines was something about loneliness. Was pretty sure that was it.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? :confused:

Cobalt's malice

I can be slow to recongize malice :mean: - guess I just expect more of people - but now I get it Cobalt, you were taking a personal swipe at me. :disappointed:

What kind of malice? Lol. I simply posted "bumping is bad" and then my opinion on the subject.

Cobalt you bish hurting other's feelings like that! You oughta be hanged from your thumbs!!!

life is for living lyrics (as I hear them)

 

I don't believe there is any mention of a cave in the song? It logically wouldn't fit and has nothing to do with the content of the song. I listened to the live version 2002 at Gavonberry (sorry my spelling sux) and to me it sounds like it goes a something like this:

 

And in the end there's only us, and oh my friend there's only love.

Come away (on in) in time we trust, cuz in the end there's only us.

 

Give me your feedback, I'd love to hear it.

 

Long live Coldplay but go back to your roots the first albums were definately best in my book, AROBTTH and Parachutes (as the best put album in hit play, let play all the way through, repeat)

yeah i doubt the lyric is "cave." I agree that it has absolutely no place in the song and doesn't sound like something chris martin would come up with. "Googling it" doesn't really mean shit either because the source can obviously be unreliable, like some little 14 year old gir. Haha, cave? are you kidding?? jesus.
