No One's Gonna Come Lyrics
Down in the valley you're close to the sun
But we're heading closer as close as can come
So you said "you have to put some truth into your words"
Down in the valley, inside your mansion
You won't have to speak to express what you feel
But I said: "you know how it feels but not what to do"
It doesn't make sense how you can leave the ground
And enter the sky and stay there too
But no one's gonna come
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
Down in the valley; a myriad of fools
And sometimes they invite you to do what you do,
And these fools share my opinion that flying is crazy too
Down in the valley a choice has been made
A new reputation, it sleeps in your bed
Like you said: "it never was better than how it was"
I know what you say how things fall apart
Now that they grow I'm talking in the dark
But no one's gonna come
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
But no one's gonna come
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
You can just call
I will pretend not to care
You'll pretend all
And I'll pretend you called
But no one's gonna come
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
But we're heading closer as close as can come
So you said "you have to put some truth into your words"
You won't have to speak to express what you feel
But I said: "you know how it feels but not what to do"
And enter the sky and stay there too
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
And sometimes they invite you to do what you do,
And these fools share my opinion that flying is crazy too
A new reputation, it sleeps in your bed
Like you said: "it never was better than how it was"
Now that they grow I'm talking in the dark
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?
I will pretend not to care
You'll pretend all
And I'll pretend you called
tell you how its done
tell you how it feels
'till you come down
It doesn't work by itself
How come?

oh man, this song. it is incredible. i love it.
this is my favourite. by my favourite artist.
I just heard this song w/ the video... and I love this guy. How adorable is he? I mean come on.
this is my favorite song by sondre. theres just something about they lyrics and the way he sings them. it just gets me.
"it doesn't make sense how you can leave the ground and enter the sky and stay there too" is my favorite line. i think its about falling in love for the first time and feeling like your floating. and you're wondering how this feeling can stay with you where ever you go.
"Down in the valley, inside your mansion."
This sounds sexual. Just a thought.
Maybe, just maybe, it's about someone who's so high up there in their ability and self-esteem that what people say or think--or even the idea that others matter--can't reach him, and because of that he suffers. But he's still above it all, and others can only envy him of this. A few, as expressed in the first few lines, are actually inspired by this to change.
But what do I know?

I also think it's "you invite them"....
