Under the great north star
Try to work out where you are
In the silence of the sea
I don't know where I've been
In the future, in the past
Going nowhere much too fast
When I go there go with me
When I go there go with me
'Cause I don't know where I'm going but I wanna talk
I feel like I'm going where I've been before
And I wanna talk
Take a picture of
Something that you're not sure of
Bring it back to show me
But I don't know what I see
In the future, find a home
Getting nowhere on your own
Got to find your missing piece
'Cause you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
And nothing's really making any sense at all
You'll tell any one who'll listen that you feel ignored
Let's talk, let's talk
Do you wanna talk?
I'm up in the part of the throne
I'm trying to sing a song
In a language I don't speak
I try but I cant get through
I'm trying to get to you
But you're difficult to reach
Won't you talk to me....
So you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
Let's talk, let's talk ...
Let's talk, let's talk ...
Try to work out where you are
In the silence of the sea
I don't know where I've been
In the future, in the past
Going nowhere much too fast
When I go there go with me
When I go there go with me
'Cause I don't know where I'm going but I wanna talk
I feel like I'm going where I've been before
And I wanna talk
Take a picture of
Something that you're not sure of
Bring it back to show me
But I don't know what I see
In the future, find a home
Getting nowhere on your own
Got to find your missing piece
'Cause you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
And nothing's really making any sense at all
You'll tell any one who'll listen that you feel ignored
Let's talk, let's talk
Do you wanna talk?
I'm up in the part of the throne
I'm trying to sing a song
In a language I don't speak
I try but I cant get through
I'm trying to get to you
But you're difficult to reach
Won't you talk to me....
So you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
Let's talk, let's talk ...
Let's talk, let's talk ...

'Cause you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk

Let's talk, let's talk
Do you wanna talk?
Been there, a whole bunch.
it feels more meaningful, and the drums are heavy.
i absolutely love it, it's so meaningful.
everyone needs someone in their lives who'll listen to them and actually understand them.
and that's the meaning of the song, from where i'm standing.
Now having said that, I still like this version very much. The only thing I would change is after the "wont you talk to me" lyric I would've kept the guitar riff from the final album version. Then it would have been perfect.
the drums are a bit different. why didn't they release this one?
I think this is much better than the final album version.
treos7: it was leaked from the studios while the album was in production and has never officially been released. try asking around on coldplaying.com forums to get it.
