Doves - Catch The Sun Lyrics






Every day it comes to this
Catch the things you might have missed
You say get back to yesterday
'Cause I ain't ever going back
Back to the place that I can't stand
But I, I miss the way you lie
'Cause I'm always misunderstood
Pulled apart and ripped in two
But I, I miss the way you lie

Catch the sun before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

'Cause I never really understood
Why I didn't feel so good
But I, I miss the way you lie
'Cause I've always been up and down
Never wanted to hit the ground
But I, I miss the way you lie

Catch the sun before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

Good night, hey

Catch the sun before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke, it's gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hey, my, my, my
Hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hey, my, my, my, my, my
Hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hey, my-y-y-y
Hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hey

  25. m.... s....

    Every day it comes to this 
    Catch the things you might have missed 
    You say, get back to yesterday 
    I ain't ever going back 
    Back to the place that I can't stand 
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    'Cause I've always been misunderstood
    Pulled apart and ripped in two 
    But I, I miss the way you lie

    Catch the sun, before it's gone 
    Here it comes, up in smoke and gone 
    Catch the sun, it never comes 
    Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

    I never really understood 
    Why I did not feel so good 
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    'Cause I've always been up and down 
    Never wanted to hit the ground 
    But I, I miss the way you lie

    Catch the sun, before it's gone 
    Here it comes, up in smoke and gone 
    Catch the sun, it never comes 
    Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

    Reforming in 2019, looking like a good year.

    2018 & first times I hear it. I won't die stupid

  29. O.... O....

    Any one ever notice the video gos with the song perfectly. All the warm colors....

  30. E.... W....

    this brings me back to those MTV2 days. Where you could listen to music all day, I was so happy to hear this tune play.

  31. M.... H....

    First heard this song while working for Abercrombie & Fitch. It's 2018 and I still remember this gem.

  32. S.... F....

    Definite New Order/Joy Division influence here.

  33. d.... m....

    Clip and Song wonderful

  34. S.... ....

    This makes me want to play in traffic.

  35. O.... O....

    This gonna be weird coming from a mc. But this song is a perfect example of real music!
    All the melody! All the strings!
    How warm it sounds! If you turn on the radio right now, you won't hear nothing close to this!!! These dudes are heavily underated! Or at least in the states they are.

  36. J.... D....

    Maravilha...

  37. l.... s....

    fucking awesome album ....

  38. K.... S....

    💕 💕 💕 Nostalgia

  40. G.... S....

    So Fucking Cool One. Loved it..

  41. O.... O....

    Love this song. All of the melody! How ever! I bought lost souls, and was super disappointed! It's not horrible. But there wasn't a song on there that sounded like this... It's like a song your crazy about. Then go buy the CD. And it comes out,
    The best song on there is the one that made you buy it! And the rest of it, is just alright...

  42. S.... F....

    This song so reminds me of my daughters when they were little girls
    Now they are in there twenties and never visit there dad ..

  43. d.... ....

    A song to start every day, every week, every month, every year...

    Great tune

  48. A.... S....

    The first time I went to England, in 2000, is when I heard this song at my friend's flat. I loved it, and when I went home and Doves came to my town in the US, I went to see them. Terrific show. I hope they get back together.

    Catch the Sun
    Doves
    Album: Lost Souls

    Every day it comes to this
    Catch the things you might have missed
    You say, get back to yesterday
    I ain't ever going back
    Back to the place that I can't stand
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    'Cause I've always been misunderstood
    Pulled apart and ripped in two
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    Catch the sun, before it's gone
    Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
    Catch the sun, it never comes
    Cry in the sand, lost in the fire
    I never really understood
    Why I did not feel so good
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    'Cause I've always been up and down
    Never wanted to hit the ground
    But I, I miss the way you lie
    Catch the sun, before it's gone
    Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
    Catch the sun, it never comes
    Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

  58. d.... ....

    I could play this all day...

  59. J.... D....

    back before youtube when MTV2 kept breaking new talent and your VCR was working overtime. good ole times

  60. O.... O....

    i smoked so much pot to this, it ain't even funny

  61. d.... ....

    Maybe the best song ever written.

    dazzlingdublinblue1 https://www.change.org/p/encourage-doves-band-to-reform

  62. j.... c....

    Why weren't they bigger..ugh, I fell in love with this song first time I heard it.

  63. j.... ....

    Why aren't these guys world famous?

  64. B.... ....

    Verse chords: Bmaj9, Emin7, F# (transition to chorus)
    Chorus chords: Gmaj7, Dmaj7, Amaj7, Emaj7

  65. B.... ....

    This probably didn't blow up because it's too harmonically complex for radio -- at least in the US.

    Too many major 7ths and chord changes for the great unwashed. -- Modulates in the Verse from F# up to Gmaj7/Dmaj7=>Amaj7/Emaj7. Nobody without at least a little harmony understanding could just pick up the guitar and accurately jam this. Maybe why it didn't become more popular. Fan frickin tastic song

  66. s.... ....

    I'm back again, greatest song ever 🔥🔥

  67. j.... r....

    Mam i remember listenin to this even though Oi and HC is where its at this will forever be a jammer

  68. A.... F....

    junior high days. Lost Souls

  69. a.... k....

    They deserve more acclaim. They are underrated. Their songs are very inspiring.

  70. s.... ....

    Greatest song ever!!!!!

    A.... M....

    I remember listening to this song on a plane leaving NYC, my first time back since 2000 and post 9/11 (2005)

  79. L.... C....

    The colors of the video are a perfect style for the song. I listen to this over and over and then go catch some sun.

  80. z.... ....

    Kept hearing this at work and thought it was Swervedriver, finally caught some lyrics and googled it. If you like this, check out Swervedriver (my favorite album is Mezcalhead).

  93. f.... p....

    SONG IS AMAZING ... but...  Drummer's Baseball hat pretty much ruins this video for me .. go wear your hat at a Springsteen show bro ..

    f.... p....

    +fernando perdomo What is it the Libertines sing?" There are fewer more depressing sights than that of an Englishman in a baseball cap." so true.

  94. F.... C....

    One of my all time favorites

  95. G.... ....

    This is up there with the best songs done by anyone......... seriously. It's genius!!
    Where it hits at 3.04 i feel i could take off & fly...

    G.... ....

    One of the best comments ever! Made me smile and feel free.

    G.... ....

    This comment is officially correct. The world would be a better place if everyone on the planet got to listen to the build up to 3.04 at the same time and then danced

    G.... ....

    Best comment ever. 100-percent truth!

  96. E.... M....

    I wanna start tryin to write my screenplay again.

  97. N.... ....

    Another perfect song from my teenage years

    N.... ....
