Everlong (1999-11-23: Barrowlands, Glasgow, UK) Songtext
von 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

So, dad would take the Sundays off
And that′s the only time he could ever get any rest
And so, because we were loud on Sundays
He′d make us hold his construction boots over our head, 'til we′d sleep
And they were really heavy boots and I used to say, "Dad, come on, please"
And like start crying, 'cause they′re too heavy

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
