I believe this song is about having sex with a virgin. with the "Mary" reference and all. she is the most famous virgin. "we're chained" meaning - the way virgins are usually attached to their "first" lover in a very strong way... usually |

| Death Cab for Cutie – I Will Follow You Into the Dark Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
a long time ago a girl told me "maybe love isn't as strong as we think... love can't stop a train." She was referring to the fact that there are something that you can't stop from happening no matter how much you love someone. Love can't stop a train ... but a train can't stop love either. To me thats what this song is about. If heaven and hell end up being a couple of make beleive places our love will STILL always exists. |

|
I don't know what it is. When I read the lyrics I can't make out some things but when I hear them in the song it all makes perfect sense. I think he is talking about dying. "As I'm leaving" as I'm dying. Maybe he seeing things in a different light but now it's too late. |

How was he able to write this song? What an awsome listen the tune makes. "and all of the world and all of its powers couldn't keep your love from me" strong statement. Beautiful.... i mean this is what music is. This is music. |

| Copeland – When Paula Sparks Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| It's early in the morning and his loved one is in a hospital bed. he is getting ready to spend another day watching over her waiting for "paula" to be awake again. he is starved for her attention...wants her to wake up and say i'm better let's go out and have a good time tonight... | |
| Copeland – California Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
"I miss the way you sing low So I can't hear your voice over The radio in my car" It's the little things that kill. when she's gone you remember the details. like this small thing means so much now to him. An awsome song writing experience. and the music comes to such an amazing climax that actually gives you some kind of closure at the end of the song. |

| Copeland – Brightest Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| He captured that moment very well. the moment when you try to rationalize why you love someone when have so much anger from fighting with them. you think of them and just become weak. you fall apart and become vulnerable... and you just want them to come back and stay the night with you and make up. act like it never happened... fall in love all over again. | |

| Counting Crows – Anna Begins Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This is my favorite song! When I listen to it sometimes i can sit through the whole thing and i have to turn it off. "She can't stop shaking I can't stop touching her and... " This guy knows...he knows!!! To want to be ready but to love someone so much that you have to admit that your are not ready, rather than play the game. Very Bob Dylan. Mission accomplished. |

| Counting Crows – If I Could Give All My Love (Richard Manuel Is Dead) Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
"This song is about someone thinking about his life passing him by… well, it's about me thinking about my life passing me by. I was looking back on this relationship of mine that was gone. A long time ago I was coming home from being out all night, drinking with this girl and some friends. Me and the girl came back to my house; this was when I lived in Berkeley. It was about 6:30 in the morning, so the paper was there. I went inside and looked through it before crashing, and it said that Richard Manuel [of the Band] had died; he hung himself in a hotel room in Florida. I just sat there at seven in the morning, still pretty wasted, thinking how impermanent things were. I remember thinking that you just can't let things slip by you, because one day they're gone. The girls that you can't get your act together for, they go off and marry other people. People die. Life is not sitting around, waiting for you." You start this reflective song with a catchy, upbeat guitar lick. That's about just aching to let it out. Each chorus starts off with that line: 'If I could give all my love to you ...' It's not until the second line that he adds this caveat: "… but I can't." |

| Counting Crows – Goodtime Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I agree with u FallonMarie. This song has to be about the days in between lovers. You just want to have a "good time". It's a very simple statement but yet it has so much depth. "Just wanna have a good time" been there. In there!! Thats why I'm reading lyrics to all these wonderful Crows songs. The best soundtrack for this part of my life. Oh- yeah and I really love those red haired girls....being from Texas and all. HaHa! | |
| Counting Crows – Have You Seen Me Lately Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I’ve felt that the thing that was supposed to.....supposed to flush me out, to make me feel the least like the ghost-type fella, was actually turning me into a ghost instead. I wanted to disappear everytime I heard myself on the radio. Not that I didn’t like hearing it, but after a while, you’re in a restaurant or in a bar somewhere, and it plays, and everyone looks at you, and it just creeped me out after a while. I felt that I couldn’t get into a place where people weren’t looking at me. I do feel that being a musician is about the life of a song. I think that the public, a lot of the time , have a tendency to color people in, who are famous. Make them their own image. Take what they believe a famous person should be, and what they’re like, and what they have, and how they’re life is, and color it into the person who may have nothing to do with that. That’s what the last verse of that song is about. It’s saying: "Having felt that I was so disappearing, why didn’t somebody tell me this was happening. I thought somebody would notice. I thought somebody would say something if I was disappearing...if I was missing". And then he sort of screams out: "can’t you see me?" And then he says: "OK, well then, color me in. If I’m everything you think I am... go on, color me in. And while you’re at it, make the sky green, make the... what is it...blue rain...make the rain blue, and make the sky black. If you can make me anything you want, go ahead and do that. Make the whole world anything you want. But, Give me your blue rain, give me your black sky...or just give me your green eyes... or your white skin. Something real. " Do you really know who I am? Everyone was saying they did. I’m not sure they did. You’re suddenly...you can become a very semi-private person who has trouble dealing with people, and the next day you belong to everyone. And, all I’m saying is that I’m not sure you get it, really. People come up to and they say "oh...we love you, we love you, can we take a picture with you?" Pictures make me uncomfortable. I can’t tell you why, but they do. And since they do, I probably shouldn’t do them. So, I’d say "I don’t really feel comfortable doing that." They say "ya, well, screw you...we *made* you." No you didn’t. The truth is, I was always me. I wasn’t nothing before this happened. I may not have been famous, I may not have been wealthy, but I was something. You don’t make somebody. You don’t. And, you can’t take it away either. That’s the thing people don’t realize. I appreciate what they’re saying.... they’re just saying that "we appreciate what you do." But, I couldn’t always take all that appreciation, sometimes. I just need a little space. | |
| Counting Crows – She Don't Want Nobody Near Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| It's just about people who are uncomfortable in the company of other people and also tired of being alone and they are trying to juggle those two opposing feelings. They are trying to figure out how to live that way. | |
