No problem. Is it true that in America it's a name for girls? Cause here in Croatia it's a name for boys. :)

I know a girl called Fran (well you say it like that not sure if it's written like that :blank:)

What do you think of these lyrics? Do you understand the meaning? :)

 

 

 

EDIT

And the summer came to end

Threw me back to land

I'm not careful where I stand

I'm here alone on the strand

 

Where all the victims came to die

And all that tears will never dry

I'm losing my life in the sky

I'm losing but do I have to deny?

 

And I'm again alone

How are you dear?

Is it again just me

And my friend called fear?

 

If the sky won't open up for me

Could you tell me, please, who will I be?

Everything I have ever done is lost

Am I still yours, or am I just a ghost?

 

And I'm again alone

How are you dear?

It's again just me

And my friend fear?

 

Yeah, I'm again alone

Is that you dear?

You made me trust

In my friend fear

 

 

HAI FRAN! :hug:

 

I like these lyrics, and I can definitely understand them in the context of overcoming your fears. And I love the imagery that the first verse brings to mind :wacky:

 

But the last word in the first verse (strand) I have a hard time following . . . maybe change "strand" to "sand"?

really how you say it then?

I just say FRAN all short letters

HAI! ...ColdplayingfromKansas (what's your name?) :)

 

Well, isn't strand - a beach? I know it's a beach in german, but wikipedia says also in english: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strand

If not, it's no problem changing it to sand. :)

 

when I translate beach to Dutch I end up with strand :lol:

didn't know it's a word in English

Well I've never heard of a strand being used a beach before.

 

I haven't either :thinking:

 

But if that is what it means then I think it fits perfectly, sand was just an alternate suggestion :P Usually strand is used as a verb (and then usually in the past tense as 'stranded) or paired with another noun (strand of hair).

 

I'm Alex, by the way :D

hahaha Enlish drops the N :lol:

I see well I say it in another different way

No it's not me xD It's Radiohead's Thom Yorke. :)

 

ah ok

You say n in Croatian actually. :)

 

Dom Howard :laugh3:

 

Ok, I'm changing that lyric to sand. :)

Yea, it's young Thom. :laugh3: I've found that pic on Radiohead forums. :)

BWAHAHAHAHA google with Dutch accent is even worse than that Dutch people speaking Dutch :lol:

And the Croatian accent on Google is also horrible xD

 

You're hindi?
