Song lyrics
We'll do it all, everything, on our own 
We don't need anything or anyone 

If I lay here 
If I just lay here 
Would you lie with me 
And just forget the world 

I don't quite know how to say how I feel 
Those three words are said too much 
They're not enough 

If I lay here 
If I just lay here 
Would you lie with me 
And just forget the world 
Forget what we're told 
Before we get too old 
Show me a garden that's bursting into life 

Let's waste time 
Chasing cars 
Around our heads 
I need your grace
to remind me
to find my own

If I lay here 
If I just lay here 
Would you lie with me 
And just forget the world 
Forget what we're told 
Before we get too old 
Show me a garden that's bursting into life 

All that I am 
All that I ever was 
Is here in your perfect eyes 
They're all I can see 
I don't know where 
Confused about how as well 
I just know that these things 
Will never change for us at all 

If I lay here 
If I just lay here 
Would you lie with me 
And just forget the world

Actually, it was on the season finale of Grey's anatomy. It was the last song they played and they played as Alex carried Izzie out of the hospital room.

It's a great song!!!

Generally speaking this isn't a bad song- kind of average.

Compared to earlier SP- or even some of the other Eyes Open songs- it's a turd.

with or without greys anatomy, such a beautiful song.. really makes you feel something. i like the blake jarrell trancey remix of it too. even tho the songs really overplayed i still find myself wanting to listen to it. thats a rarity and shows just how great the song is.

I've never been a fan of Snow Patrol, but this song won me over.
I love it.
I don't like any of their older stuff, but I can't get enough of this song.

Definitely a new favourite lol.

'Chasing Cars' reminds me of love which is about to fall apart. It's like a boy tying to say, "hey, let's stop and see the world...you'll find that we're not ordinary people...because we're in love."

So, the boy lives happily ever after with his girlfriend, yet, all the same it made me cry, because this song is strong and amazing at the same time.

first time i heard this song was at a local singing competition... and so wanted the person who sang it to win... but he didnt.

well the song caught my attention even though it wasn't sung by the original artistes, and when i herad the snow patrol version it just literally blew me away! =)

it's a really really great song... one of those songs that you can't get out of your head and just wanna listen to more. =)

way to go snow patroL! hope to hear more good stuff from you guys.

I love this song because it reminds me of my wonderful, sweet Mother, who died in October of 2006. While driving home that night I heard this song on the radio, and it reminded me of how I would lay with her when she was sick.

Does anybody else think that the "chasing cars" line might mean the guy is singing this song to his dog? Just a thought.

Anyway, I love this song.

I absolutely love this song and I felt like an idiot I didn't know who it was until yesterday. I think that it's wonderful I was upset one day and I was singing it and crying.
