Life in Technicolor II Lyrics
There's a wild wind blowing,
Down the corner of my street
Every night there the headlights are glowing
There's a cold war coming,
On the radio I heard
Baby it's a violent world
Oh love don't let me go
Won't you take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
I could hear the sirens sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Time came a creepin'
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes on
Time only can lead you on
Still it's such a beautiful night
Oh love don't let me go
Won't you take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
Like a serenade of sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Gravity release me,
And don't ever hold me down
Now my feet won't touch the ground.
Down the corner of my street
Every night there the headlights are glowing
On the radio I heard
Baby it's a violent world
Won't you take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
I could hear the sirens sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes on
Time only can lead you on
Still it's such a beautiful night
Won't you take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
Like a serenade of sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
And don't ever hold me down
Now my feet won't touch the ground.

This song has a lot of meaning, or at least to me it does. It's about how the end of the world is coming, and how everyone is frightened, but as long as he has his love by his side, he knows that he'll be alright no matter what happens.
To me it sounds like the end of the world is coming and it is inevitable, but love makes the time you have left worth living.
both versions make me wanna cry, always. it's a very touching song i think. despite the trials, to know theres someone who would weather it with you. i really want the nonlyrical one for my wedding, somehow.
I am absolutely in love with this song. Just what was missing from VLV.
This song sounds as if the person is going through an apotheosis. " Gravity released me And don't ever hold me down Now my feet won't touch the ground "
Violet Hill was winter. This song was fall.
Fantastic song cant wait to go see them in sheffield on the 29th :)
this song is about the end of the world which is quite relivent now days coz the world is in such a state right now!!
but such a great song makes the end of the world not seem that bad lol
xx
Life in Technicolor feels complete with the lyrics in it now. When Viva La Vida first came out and I heard this song, my ears were practically begging for them to add lyrics after a few listens :) I'm glad they did!
This might be the best song I've heard all year...and lukebeaumont nailed the meaning.
interesting that WITH the lyrics they add 2 minutes
