The Symphony Lyrics
Wooden floors
Wooden floors whisper
And they creak
Under your sockless feet
A secret door
A door undiscovered
You knock so gently
In case you're heard
A record plays
A song that you've not heard
It is perfect
It is home
Everything
Now everything's different
It is sweeter
On your tongue
Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
A symphony
Slow music of longing
Plays in movements
Inside your head
There are no ghosts
No ghosts that can shake you
Like they used to
Anymore
Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
You can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
Wooden floors whisper
And they creak
Under your sockless feet
A secret door
A door undiscovered
You knock so gently
In case you're heard
A record plays
A song that you've not heard
It is perfect
It is home
Everything
Now everything's different
It is sweeter
On your tongue
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
Slow music of longing
Plays in movements
Inside your head
There are no ghosts
No ghosts that can shake you
Like they used to
Anymore
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever ask for
Then this is all you'll get

One of the best songs on the new album, in my opinion! :D
I beleive the song talks about someone who dreads the uncertain future and wonders what will become of him. He knows that what he hopes to come out well might turn into failure (your ghosts look more like angels from here). The writer goes on to advice that you determine what your future looks like (If this is all you ever ask for, then this is all you'll get)
me too i love this song , i can listen to it over and over and over a day
i love this part the most :
If this is all you ever ask for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever ask for Then this is all you'll get
