SNOW PATROL

- Chasing Cars 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
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?

My boyfriend and I barely knew each other in the begging of my freshman year. When we first started talking, he told me that he dedicated this song to me. I'd heard it before but never knew the name. when I looked it up and listened to it I almost cried. He told me that he loves me more than words can explain, and I him. he makes me laugh and smile and he makes me happier than anyone ever has. I love him.

The first time I heard this I was walking hand in hand with my childhood sweetheart that I had just reconnected with after more than twenty years. It was one of life's perfect moments.
