Song lyrics

Send "Run" ringtones to your cell

I'll sing it one last time for you 
Then we really have to go 
You've been the only thing that's right 
In all I've done 

And I can barely look at you 
But every single time I do 
I know we'll make it any where 
Away from here 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

To think i might not see those eyes 
Makes it so hard not to cry 
And as we say our long goodbyes 
I nearly do 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

Slower, slower 
We don't have time for that 
All I want's to find an easier way 
To get out of our little heads 

Have heart, my dear 
We're bound to be afraid 
Even if its just for a few days 
Making up for all this mess 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear

14 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal i love this song so much. it's about a guy n his girl and they are so in love and the thought of not being to look into her eyes kills him but they have to say goodbye. he is saying that even if she can't hear or see him he is always gonna be w/ her where ever she is. its such a beautiful song

163 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is a great idea without proper execution. The theme to the song is great and so are the lyrics but the song is pretty long and it shouldnt be. Most of the lyrics are repeated like 3 or 4 times which is highly unnessesary becuase by the first verse i understand the artists point and didnt need him/them to repeat 3/4 more times. I must say i wish this song was better than it was but if you want a song WAY BETTER than this with similar sound listen to: Straylight Run - Existentialism On Prom Night

2 posts	i agree that it is a song about, breaking up, me and my now ex used to listen to the album and run over and over, good times, but most of the other songs, are about drugs.

4 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal for whoever said the song was too long and the lyrics repetitive.sorry but in my humble opinion your talkin nonense!we'll agree to disagree but this is a beautiful song about love and hope. the song keeps building and building.3 minute pop songs can't convey any sort of message this song can do that, and another thing it hasn't anything to do with iraq gary lightbody himself said all there songs are about love and girls and there all class

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I think this song is about them in a relationship & going through something bad... not sure what. But i can apply it to something horrible that happened in my life, it was probably made as broad as it is so more people can relate to it. I absolutley love this song, it brings hope & peace & comfort somehow. Makes me want to hug people... ... lol

115 posts	I was watching Life As We Know It and this song was in it, but i couldn't think of what it was so i used the lyrics option in search and it actually worked! I've used it before and it's had no match. Love the song, i'm going to have to borrow the album from my friend now.

99 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Brilliant! I could listen to this over and over again. It's got that Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service type atmosphere. Truely is a classic.

3,451 posts	Aww, I used to like this song, but never paid that much attention to it. So when I did listen to it properly it made me so sad - I actually had tears! Love this song to bits now, but it always makes me sad (especially cause I can relate to it now).

1 posts	in the forums several people have claimed snow patrol to be scottish and british when in fact they are neither as they are from northern ireland even though they may now be based in scotland. sorry if anyone has already mentioned this
