Song lyrics
Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong

Tonight
I throw myself into
And out of the red, out of her head she sang

Come down
And waste away with me
Down with me

Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang

Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in

And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang

(Break - whispers)

And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

DAVE GROHL IS GOD!!! This song is one of my favourite songs. Plus the video kicks ass. All Foo Fighter videos are awesome. Every Foo Fighter song before One by One are good.

I am inlove with the Foo Fighters. Dave Grohl has been such a big turn on ever since he drummed in Nirvana(RIP kurt) and Everlong is the centerpiece beauty of the foo fighters. It is the one song which everyone hopes they can relate to atleast once in their life, the kind of love that feels so real that you wish it would be eternal, ever long. I think the lyrics are excellent and the intensity in the chorus captures you and makes the song what it is today, on of the the greatest songs for the last decade. Everlong is a good defination of being inlove and it is my defination. I would recommend the album The Color and the Shape to anyone.

Not only is it the best song the foos have made.......it is also my personal favorite song for several reasons........

1. the song hs such a good beat and incredible vibe....

2. i love the musical backdrop
3. the lyrics are unbelievable

NOW HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT REASON

4. it is the only song i hqve ever listened to that can be played backwards (reversed) and youll here a new song that is even better than the original
>>>>>THATS RIGHT THE SONG IS ONE SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE.....ALL 4:10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a little sample of the song played backwards..........

Hasheesh, ill be here trying to intox us all night

This song needs some serious worshipping! Personally I think the acoustic version is the best!! When it hit my speakers, I'm in heaven.. Along with this, you should give Walking After You (Acoustic) a try! It rocks 2!

my hero will never touch everlong
everlong made my top 10 list of best songs of the 90s, and remains one of the best and most recognized rock songs of the 90s

the acoustic version didn't hurt it either
