Shafa introduced me to this song prob 2 years ago and I confess it was only after several hearings that I truly appreciate the beauty and pain in this song. I was reading some comments abt it and I was attracted to what this guy said.

It reminded him of his 1st girlfriend and he never realised that he loved her that much til they broke up. Sounds typical, you say. But he added that he has never loved in the same way again. Yea he was naive then but that was what made the love perfect; it's loving someone with that careless abandon that you now don't have as you get older and more cautious and realistic.

It's true isn't it.. Not saying that this is bad and we shd just abandon all reasons now.. But think about it, when was the last time you just let yourself go?

My interpretation to this song is alil different. I hear it as a sort of a plead.. done with the realisation and expectation that the good stuff will end, one day, but also with the hope that it wouldn't.

Well who cares. Just enjoy the song, will you.

I love Foo Fighters.


I'm still waiting for a kind someone, anyone, to get me the cd.

(Foo Fighters)

Hello, I've waited here for you... Everlong.
Tonight, I throw myself into,
And out of the red, out of her head she sang.

Come down and waste away with me, down with me...
Slow how, you wanted it to be,
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang.

And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever.
If anything could ever be this good again,
The only thing I'll ever ask of you.
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:

Breathe out, so I can breathe you in,
Hold you in, and now, I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang.

And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever,
If anything could ever be this good again.
The only thing I'll ever ask of you,
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:

And I wonder,
If everything could ever feel this real forever,
If anything could ever be this good again.
The only thing I'll ever ask of you,
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
