Song lyrics
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you, tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart.

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions,
Oh lets go back to the start.
Running in circles, Comin' in tails
Heads on a science apart.

Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.

Oh take me back to the start.

I was just guessin' at numbers and figures,
Pulling the puzzles apart.
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart.

And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start.
Runnin' in circles, Chasin' tails
Comin' back as we are

Nobody said it was easy,
Oh it's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be so hard.

I'm goin' back to the start.

Ohhhh oooooo
Ahhhh oooooo
Ohhhh oooooo
Ohhhh oooooo

This is a great song but I probably love the music video more than the song! Its interesting to see the video in reverse and to try and put the story together yourself. Coldplay [Chris Martin especially] is amazing. <33

This song is beautiful. It shows that you don't have to have loud music and people yelling on a song to prove your point. I think it is just one of the most touching songs we have had in the last decade. I have a lot of friends who don't like Coldplay, and who say their songs all sound the same, but I love them none-the-less and true love lasts forever!

this song is my favorite song of all time i believe. it and Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. anyway, i fell in love w/ this song from the 1st time i heard it, and at the time, i was falling hard for someone who had just recently told me that things werent going to work, and i was tore up, so i went to this song for closure i suppose.. music has become my refuge lately. well i give this song two thumbs up!

wanna talk, message me
