Coldplay - Orphans Lyrics
(I want to know when I can go)
(Back and get drunk with my friends?)
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Rosaleem of the Damascene
Yes, she had eyes like the moon
Would have been on the silver screen
But for the missile monsoon
She went, "Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo"
Indigo go up to heaven today
Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo
With bombs going boom ba-boom-boom
She say
I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and be young again
Baba would go where the flowers grow
Almond and peach trees in bloom
And he would know just when and what to sow
So golden and opportune
He went, "Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo"
Tulips the colour of honey today
It's true true, woo woo oo-oo-oo
With bombs going boom ba-boom-boom
He say
Oh I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and be young again (yeah)
Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo
Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo
Cherubim seraphim soon
Come sailing us home by the light of the moon
Oh I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and feel home again
Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo
I guess we'll be raised on our own then
Woo woo, woo woo oo-oo-oo
I want to be with you 'til the world ends
I want to be with you 'til the whole world ends
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Boom boom ka, buba de ka
Boom

Coldplay Orphans Comments
I feel like this most of the time
Es muy bonita me encanta
What a wonderful song.... !!!! Heard it yesterday for the first time, can't stop listening....
I want to know when I can go
Back to get drunk with friends. 😥
Here we have a direct reference to the bombings that happened in the Syrian capital, Damascus, in April 2018; it's when Britain, the US, and France attacked the city, leaving many dead children and adults; one of those is the character mentioned here; her name was Rosaleen.
Credits : POP song professor
that intro is just 😤👌
I Heard this song
In Tenerife ...and still is in my mind ❣️
Das Lied ist der Hammer
The most underrated song ever
𝚆𝚘𝚘 𝚠𝚘𝚘 𝚘𝚘 𝚘𝚘
Hi. You will find them at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Case closed.
Please make this music to stop the upcoming war.
No no one is an orphan...make room for ..nice song thou
I heard his song in the car radio and I traveled into a different dimension

Me soooo drunk

People surviving under bombs share the same dream of getting drunk again, that's for sure. Oo
Once again, Coldplay, thankyou!
Feeling sorry for all those who disliked not knowing the real meaning of the song...
😀👍👍
this got mylo xyloto vibe to it
Les français sont la fans de colplay avec mon père de père en fils
Wonderful song
.....questa e per le persone che non hanno famiglia......auguri 360 giorni all'anno......che per essere se stessi ci vogliono le persone a cui piacciamo....che ci vogliono bene....e amano.....come vogliamo piacere....essere voluti e volute bene.....amati e amate......
Amassing song ... touched me deeply when I understood the meaning!
One of the best I have ever seen live they are quality
You know, my country and people were bombed in Cyprus by Islam, why doesnt someone make a song about that?
He is from Zimbabwe
Coldplay is African
“I wanna know, when I can go back and be young again” 🤘
is that the Hoedown Throwdown hidden in there?
Bordel aucuns français écoute coldplay??????
Meilleure groupe ils sont très simple 👍💗
To są Kosmici, to są Królowie muzy. Polecam szczególnie na żywo, na koncercie.
#Amazing 🥰🥰
Coldplay seem to take more and more "inspiration" from other artists. After "Talk", clear homage paid to Kraftwerk, now comes this song: please listen to "Sole sole" by Eugenio Bennato... Also listen to the original song sung by all Stuttgart stadium while Napoli won there the UEFA Cup in 1989
Luv the crowd
peace and love <3
Please don't dislike this music. It doesn't deserve it.
satyam thassu
Most of them are haters but not all, they can have their reasons too
ngl i think youd be suprised how many will be misclicks...
Who disliked this song..."I want to know...."
Too late, I already have.
@Ena Lo generally the people who don't like politics in their music. I am honestly really disappointed in this cd, definitely glad I didn't buy it. It's fine to have a particular opinion/belief, but don't base your entire album on it. Course that's just my opinion
Come saling us home by the light of the noon.
❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁😘😘😘
Wish i was young again...
wish i can be immortal and stop ageing at 25
Coldplay, sempre i migliori!!
😲🎤🎤🎶🎶🎵🎵👍
🤩🤩this song is crazi. 🇨🇵
My inglish is verry bad sorry😅
Only 5.9!
ROSALEEN of the DAMASCENE...The little rose of the city of roses...the cleverest line of the year indeed.
“I wanna be with you til the world ends, I wanna be with you til the whole world ends!” It’s enough to make a grown man cry...
This song is filled with so much adventure, freedom and sentimentalism. It makes me want to wander the Scottish highlands, climb Mt. Everest and enjoy the views from up above an Iceladic vulcano....
It makes me wanna feel alive...
Mind me of mary Ann Ross wife
I will live for this sound...
“I wanna know, when I can go back and be young again” I felt that
If you love Coldplay and ‘this song
👇🏼
Are you serious? Have you as much need fame?
Davy Jackson am I not allowed to ask a question?
I don't love coldplay I just love this song 😍
Feels Bittersweet overall with uplift and the lyrical message
and i'm Grateful for that , thanks Coldplay
uwu owo
Simply amazing like Always,
I remember them from my childhood, when my brother showed me the scientist
Back then i was kinda dancing to the scientist, now i'm crying to this
And now i'm dancing to orphans, trying to forget about all the madness in my life
At the end of the day, Coldplay was with me through every minute of my 'adult' life
Coldplay is back yay 2019
They proved why they are legends
✌🏼
Coldplay back with classic he are🔥
theres just something so liberating about this song
