stop clappin damn...Beautiful song
-
since it seems like we are talking about our favorite lines, mine is- "all we need is love is a lie, cause we had love but we still said goodbye" so true sometimes
-
My favorite line is "I called
Because
I just
Need to feel you on the line
Don't hang up this time
And I know it was me who called it over but
I still wish you'd fought me 'til your dying day
Don't let me get away" .....

I was there, 5th row, and I nearly died when he played this, it was so perfect.
-
"All you need is love is a lie cuz we had lovebut we still said goodbye" prob one of the most honest lines ive ever heard
-
@pianox12 I was wondering the same thing for a long time. I think it means that when she left, he felt like there was no air left in the room. "The breath you left" I think translates into the memory of her.
-
@pianox12 you have to look at it in context:
"and it stings when it's nobody's fault, cause there's nothing to blame at the drop of your name, only the air you took and the breath you left"...
-
my favourite line is "so I'll check the weather wherever you are cause' I wanna know if you could see the stars tonight" :D love this song :)
-
this is one of my favorite songs evah!



A split screen is used in movies to show two different scenes at once... like two people breaking things off and going about their lives separately. As far as two wrongs make it all alright tonight, well they both wronged the other and feel regret and sadness together.
:) I love this song, it's lyrically brilliant, John is amazing...
