Boyd posted a clip in the Toronto thread (on the tour board) and I was wondering if anyone was feeling nice enough to figure out the lyrics? please?!

I have never heard this song until I downloaded it and I love it. Razz And then I saw your post and thought what a challange for me. To try and dechiper the song. Well not really dechiper the song. Most of the lyrics you can make out and but I did try to pinpoint the words underlined, the best possible that I could make out....To many ohh's and awww's for me to make them totally out. I have no clue how bad this is off, but would love for someone to tell me..so here goes. Confused


I felt the wind shifting back up on us
hold on me
have to run
but we can not city there is no way
we're calling names to the speakers oh
oh oh
when they find you they'll retreive you
take you where spirit's
arms will freeze you,
but we can not city there is no way
they calling name to the speakers oh
oh oh
old world has died out, speak for you but all I want is you,
live and die for you but all I want is you,
but you come home and we'll share together old and now
they'll make me drink this potion and i'll sleep forever until
I wake under the glacy old ground the ground the ground oh yeah

Here's what i hear, not claiming these are perfect, but should be pretty close:

ESCAPING SONG

I felt the wind shift in back of us
hold on
we have to run
but we can't Escape
there's no way
they called our names through the speakers
no no
when they find you they'll retreive you
take you West
???? will freeze you,
but we can't Escape
there's no way
they called our names through the speakers
no no
men would die at sea for you
but all I want is you,
men would live and die for you
but all I want is you,
You
the beautiful moments we've shared together
old and now
they'll make me drink this potion, i'll sleep forever
until I wake under the glacier ground
the ground
the ground
oh yeah

Such a lovely song. It has a very "Tree Tops" vibe to it. I can't wait to hear it in Lawrence...

when they find you
they'll retreive you

will freeze you

We can't escape there's no way
they call our names through the speakers

Men would die at sea for you
but all I want is you
men would live an die for you
but all I want is you.....you....oo

The beautiful moments we shared together

Don't make me drink this potion
I'll sleep forever
Until I wake under
the glacier ground

aaaaAHHHHH! I've been totally waiting to hear this song. Ever since I heard it in clip 9. I totally feel like one of the studio audience members on oPRAH who won a car right now. Very Happy
