THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
THEY'RE HAVING SEX!
Seriously. Did you guys miss that?
Seriously. Did you guys miss that?
You cool your bed-warm hands down on the broken radiator,
(She comes in to him sleeping... maybe she went to the bathroom.)
And when you lay them freezing on me, I mumble "can you wake me later?"
(She wants some action. It's cold, though. He's sleepy. Wake me later.)
But I don't really want you to stop and you know it so it doesn't stop you
(But she knows he wants it. Duhh. Who wouldn't. She's probably hot.)
And run your hands from my neck to my chest.
(Whabam. She's making her move.)
It's been minutes, it's been days, it's been all I will remember
(How long have they been going at it? Who knows. Their love feels like forever.)
Happy lost in your hair and the cold side of the pillow
(SongMeanings forgot the comma. "Happy, lost in your hair." He's happy being lost in her hair.)
Your hills and valleys are mapped by my intrepid fingers
(Your hills and valleys? Ahem. Mapped by fingers? Uh-oh.)
And in a naked slumber, I dream all this again
(All done? Sleepy time. And he dreams of her again.)
MORNINGTIME!
Crack the shutters open wide, I wanna bathe you in the light of day
(The comes in from the shutters, covers her body.)
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
(The light rays tangle around her body.)
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
(He could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed by her each minute.)
Cuz' the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you
(The daylight seems to go ALL over her. He likes her as much as it does?)
How about METAPHORLAND, you say?
Crack the shutters open wide, I wanna bathe you in the light of day
(He opens his eyes and looks at her, bathing her in his vision.)
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
(He watches as his own hands wander around her body, traveling her aforementioned "hills and valleys.")
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
(He could sit for hours doing this... sharing their perfect, nekkid intimacy.)
Cuz' the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you
(Ohh god damn, he wants her. As much as the daylight wants her.)
By the way. Even more to support sex: Anyone else notice "happy lost in your hair" sounds kinda like "Happy lust in your hair." Sure, it's Lightbody's accent. BUT, it does sound like someone finished in someone's hair. Just sayin'.
Anyways. They're having sex. Why? Because they're sharing the deepest intimacy a couple can share: they're making love. It's beautiful, touching, and true. Especially when it's told in Gary Lightbody's spot-on apologia.
Ha ha ha. Thanks for that. "Talking about how [she] is like an angel." Pfft.

I disagree with you about the "happy lust in your hair" thing though. I think that's a bit too lewd for Gary. But hey, that's just an opinion, it's your right to interpret this song however you want.

Dude, I've been waiting for the lyrics for this for so long. Thanks so much!
I'm thinking that he's talking about how the girl he likes/loves is like an angel.
