| I love this song, I'm singing along to it over and over it's about finding love and letting go of all other things, "forget what we're told, before we get too old" to me this line describes the nature of love perfectly...sometimes to understand you have to forget what you already know, and look for different answers also to live!! and abandon common sense every now and then again I loved this song, snow patrol are moving up my list of fav bands very quickly | |

| This song makes me feel so sad. I think it's about loving someone so intensly, you really can't live without them. Not being certain if they feel the same way about you. I love the lyrics theyre so powerful, and the fact that he says them slowly and clearly helps you make sense out of them. | |

| Idealized love, that's what I hear. This song seems to be the beautiful side of ignoring reality through love, whereas the next song, Shut Your Eyes, seems to be about the dangerous side. Track 4 leads to track 5 and it is eventually revealed that this is a naive state of mind. For however good it feels in the moment, it's a set-up for disaster. The theme of the album shows up in the line, "Here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see". It's not shut your eyes, but it is some form of blindness. There is also the matter of lying down on the ground, which appears in this song, Set the Fire to the Third Bar, and Warmer Climate. For some reason, I picture this song as a couple with their backs to the ground, staring up at the stars. It would stand to reason that the ground could represent reality, as they would have their backs to reality in this song, later to be faced as "cold" reality and "warm" reality in the other songs, respectively. I can't get used to the title, though, it just doesn't seem like the heart of the song to me. The explanation, "he wouldn't know what to do if he caught one" makes sense, but I still don't like it. Great song though, I can't pick on it too much. This is simply a great album. | |
