Come on now, don't you want to see?
This thing that's happening to me
Like Moses has power over sea
So you've got power over me

Come on now, don't you want to know?
You're a refuge, somewhere I can go
You're air that, air that I can breathe
Cause you're my golden opportunity

And oh, oh yes I would
If I only could
And you know I would
And baby I, oh baby I
I wish

Come on now, don't you want to see?
Just what a difference you've made in me
I'll be waiting oh no matter what you say
Cause I've been waiting for days, days, days

And oh, oh yes I would
If I only could
And you know I would
And baby I, oh baby I
I wish
I wish

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
If the sky's gonna fall down, let it fall on me
If you're gonna break down, you can break on me
If the sky's gonna fall down, let it fall on me
If it's gonna rain down, it can rain on me
It can rain on me

    General Comment:concur. this song is about Chris Martin's wife Gwenyth. It is widely known that Gwenyth suffered from post-partum depression after the birth of thier son, Moses. This song is Chris's attempt to inspire his wife to cheer-up.

    I think that sums up how fantastic it is

    General Comment:Just the way he says " and baby I" extending out the "I" before "I wish" drives me crazy and makes it my favourite song of theirs.
    Plus the equally melancholy yet hopeful guitar riff is to die for.

    General Comment:let me restate that. I don't really like "A Whisper that much". i hate when Warning Sign ends and you change over to A Whisper...such an ugly transitition....light and lovely to heavy and grungy doesn't work too well in my book.

    General Comment:refering to what "C0ldplay" had said about "I wish i could come up with these metaphors...

    honestly? it's really easy...
    no offense, but Coldplay's lyrics could be written by anyone with an artistic and expressive mind.

    though i LOVE every coldplay song and they are my favorite band, their lyrics are, of course, simple...

    i am in no way complaining. it's the simplicity of its beauty that amazes me
