Lyrics for Everlong as interpreted by me109cito

Everlong Lyrics
Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong

Tonight
I've thrown 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
Got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang

Breath 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
Got to 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
Got to promise not to stop when I say when

You know how you have listened to a song a million times, you think you totally get it, & then you listen to it again and the real meaning jumps out at you? I think that this song is actually about a girl who is in love with him, hence the "she sang", and then he "wonders" if it's really real. kind of hard to explain but I think that'll do...

During the bridge when Grohl is muttering- it is actually a recording of him reading three things: an instruction manual, a love letter, and a story some guy wrote about his father

I was never really a big fan of the fo fighters till i heard this song. Im still not. But this song is one of the best. Like the accoustic version on the howard stern show howard said " you knwo how thats a good song? Cause i actually got the chills durin that." I agree with him. I get the chills every time i hear it. Truly an amazing song

I don't think anyone can really say what this song really "means" except for Dave Grohl. It's obviously a love song. It's a song that a 10 year old live-or-die-by-the-radio kid can tell is beautiful and it's a song that a too-masculine-for-his-own-good hard rock fan can tell is good. It's just a beautiful song. I don't particularly like any other Foo Fighters songs, but this one stands out as being one of the greats.

okay, I won't say this is in the top 10 best songs ever category, but I WILL say that it is one of my favorite love songs, because it is neither cheesy nor mushy....the lines "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 Gotta promise not to stop when I say when" makes me think of those moments when you're with a boyfriend (or girlfriend) and you stop and realize that everything is just so perfect and you're so happy, and you hope that it can stay that way forever.

I *hate* to lag on the subject anymore especially since this page is about the Foo Fighters, but for some reason, it bugs me to hear it. Go here and you'll see what I mean http://www.cobaincase.com/ This guy makes sense

if a song makes you feel something you've never felt before and makes the hair on your neck stand up, that's undeniable. that's what this song did for me, and it has continued to since the first time i've heard it.
