the orange glow Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hey all! Man, it's been a LONG time since I've been here, at least two years. It's good to be back! I'm looking for the correct lyrics to "I Ran Away". I know it's a b-side and there's no official written document showing the lyrics Chris wrote himself, but the lyrics i find on most lyric sites just don't seem right in some places. For instance, in one like, most lyrics sites say: And when I heard you call "Come back to me" I distinctly hear: And when I heard you call To come back to you I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the popular lyric pages have a few parts wrong. I hope someone can help! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldpatrix Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 It's my favourite Coldplay song, so these are the lyrics! One, two, three...well I ran away from you That's all I ever do And though I started here I ran away from you I'm gonna come on in And see it through I ran away from you That's all I ever do And when I heard you call To come back to you And though I should stay I don't have the stomach to Everyone I know Says I'm a fool to mess with you Everyone I know Says it's a stupid thing to do I have your love on call And yet my day was so full There might be nothing left to do So I ran away from you I'm gonna come on in My eyes are closed I can feel it there The sun's so close I'm gonna come on out And burn the sky A star arose, in my own cage I'm stuck in line And in a cage Just a single star I see it fall Everyone I know Says I'm a fool to mess with you Everyone I know Says it's a stupid thing to do I have your love on call And yet my day was so full There might be nothing what to do And so I ran away from you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the orange glow Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 Yeah that seems pretty close. Except I swear he's saying "my belly is so full" instead of "my isn't so full" lol. I also do know he's saying "Will" not "well" at the beginning, as sort of an intro queue to Will Champion's solo drum intro. Anyone else got any ideas? lol.

JM-42 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 This is one of my favorite Coldplay songs. But something really strange happened last night, I was hearing a radio station and suddenly I RAN AWAY started! I couldn't believe it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcolmataylor Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 One, two, three...Will... I ran away from you It's all I ever do And though I started here I ran away from you I'm gonna come on in And see it through I ran away from you It's all I ever do And when I heard you calls To come back to you And though I should stay I don't have the stomach to And everyone I know Says I'm a fool to mess with you And everyone I know Says it's a stupid thing to do I have your love on call And yet my belly is so full There might be nothing left to do So I ran away from you When I come on in My eyes were closed I can feel it there The sun's so close When I come on out I'm not gonna stop A star arose, in my own cage I'm stuck in line And in a cage Just a single star I see it fall And everyone I know Says I'm a fool to mess with you And everyone I know Says it's a stupid thing to do I have your love on call And yet my belly is so full There might be nothing left to do And so I ran away from you These have got to be some of the hardest Coldplay lyrics to decipher...

the orange glow Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Tell me about it. That's what it all SOUNDS like to me, but some parts don't make sense. I dunno. Guess it's a lost cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsSeverusSnape Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 It's not belly, it's day! "And yet my day is so full" :thinking: And yeah, he says Will in the beginning. Oh and i think it's "just a single star i sing for", not "...i see it fall" :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennis08tarheels Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Up until now, I always thought the lyric was "every one of us says..." rather than "everyone I know says..." :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the orange glow Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Awesome! Let us know if you find anything out! I'd love to get the officials. Speaking of which, the boys need to release a b-sides collection, including any b-sides from Viva of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
