Pride can stand
A thousand trials
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you
My soul cried
Heaving heart is full of pain
Oh, oh, the aching

'Cause I'm kissing you, oh
I'm kissing you

Touch me deep
Pure and true
Gift to me forever

'Cause I'm kissing you, oh
I'm kissing you, oh

Yeah, hey, yeah

Where are you now?
Where are you now?

'Cause I'm kissing you
I'm kissing you, oh

    Lots of people, not just on here, have said they want this song for their wedding. I get that its a romantic tune but the lyrics.... have they not read the lyrics? At your weddings? REALLY? At your wedding will your 'heart is full of pain'? Will your be 'aching'? Will your 'soul be crying'? Maybe you will think im wrong but you can deny atleast SOME of the lyrics connote negative images. But still everyone's like this song is so sweet i want it at my wedding. Please, think it through people!

    This song is so sad but true. The person is telling themselves they are so strong, but once their lovers love is fading they become weak. They are trying so hard to tell the person please show me you love me (Touch me deep, pure and true). But when they kiss it's not the same, and the other person isn't caught up in the moment at all(Where are you now? Cause I'm kissing you. ) It's basically the song of a love thats ending

    Why did you put a song on here ??? Anyways, this song is just beautiful I want to cry everytime I here, I think it's like unrequited love or lost love either way ... I think it's kinda like I'm still loving you and I want you but you're not here. sad.

    this song is utter perfection. It fits in so beautifully in the movie and helps connect the story of Romeo and Juliet to this day and age. It's funny though, that the lyrics refer to an established relationship, but Romeo and Juliet only knew each other for a day.

    its been a long long time, since i lost myself put my pride down on the table, put my fear on the shelf so i bought myself a thrown to reside and let myself go but ive travelled much too far, where ive gone i'll never know (chorus) what a long, long time long, long time It's been a little old while since i felt so fine wanderin' in the rain losing my mind what a long, long time x2 my days i've spent relaxing turned to nights relaxin' too a thousand eyes upon me, but my sights are missing you so this time i swear i will loosen my grip on past times, and bad lines, and meaningless trips. chorus so, over and over mile signs pass by my side the more you try to find yourself the more you tend to hide behind these forest trees and greens that blind your eyes to lounge upon that thrown i bought, confer there with the wise chorus so here we appear, the rest lost themselves in a pit of fear for who? what can i do? but let them all come through the wall and though some oppose many of these things i know i'll stay here alone, and lose myself on the riverways of days i'm coming home. chorus

    Personally i prefer the orchestral version, but, these have to be the best lyrics to go with it. (yes, i am sad enough to have the soundtrack.....:P) Whenever i hear it i want to be in love.....

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following: "We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..." With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."
