Empy Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Here's my take on the lyrics: Lord I don't know which way I am going which way river gonna flow it just seems that upstream I keep rowing still got such a long way to go (x2) then that light it's your eye I know I swear we'll find somewhere the streets are paved with gold Bullets fly split the sky but that's all right, sometimes sunlight I'm streaming through the holes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxeh Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Sure it's not "it just seems that upstream I keep rolling"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoThree Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Here's my take on the lyrics: Lord I don't know which way I am going which way river gonna flow it just seems that upstream I keep rowing rolling? still got such a long way to go (x2) then that light it's your eye I know I swear we'll find somewhere the streets are paved with gold Bullets fly split the sky but that's all right, sometimes sunlight I'm streaming through the holes Sounds like "sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes" to me. :) I must say, this will surely become one of my favourite ever songs, it's just so lovely. It reminds me of the songs from Prospekt's March. :) And they are most wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadedade Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 I think that it's rowing, it just fits with rivers and flowing.. :) But you guessed right at the "sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes" i suppose :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiame Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Sure it's not "it just seems that upstream I keep rolling"? How can you roll upstream? :facepalm: :laugh3: It's rowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teco Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Lord I don't know which way I am going Which way the river is gonna flow It just seems that upstream I keep rowing Still got such a long way to go Still got such a long way to go Then that light It's your eye I know I swear we'll find somewhere the streets are paved with gold Bullets fly Split the sky But that's all right, sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartroc Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 How can you roll upstream? :facepalm: :laugh3: It's rowing. It's an expression. It's also used in Us Against the World. Example: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaAVJk1x97Y]The Kooks - Watching The Ships Roll In - YouTube[/ame] And it's most definitely rolling. Listen very carefully.

icecoldplay Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm having trouble with "then that light, it's your eye". I think that's probably it, but I've seen a few different takes on it. "Then at last, it's your eye" (no) "then that light, hits your eye" (maybe?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panicked Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Hello, again! Here are the lyrics from my Japanese copy: Lord I don't know which way I am going Which way the river's going to flow It just seems that upstream I keep rowing Still got such a long way to row Still got such a long way to row Then that light hits your eyes And I know I swear we'll find somewhere The streets are paved with gold Ohohoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teco Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I think these Japanese lyrics were made by ear by some EMI Japan employee. These are more wrong than my lousy understanding capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayingfromKansas Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Lord I don't know which way I am going Which way the river is gonna flow It just seems that upstream I keep rowing Still got such a long way to go Still got such a long way to go Then that light Hits your eye I know I swear we'll find somewhere the streets are paved with gold Bullets fly Split the sky But that's all right, sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes ------- That's my take on it, anyways :nod: btw, I think that last verse (Bullets fly / Split the sky / But that's alright, sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes) is absolutely brilliant :wacky: Am I the only one that thinks this?
