Snow Patrol - The Symphony Lyrics






Wooden floors
Wooden floors whisper
And they creak
Under your sockless feet
A secret door
A door undiscovered
You knock so gently
In case you're heard
A record plays
A song that you've not heard
It is perfect
It is home
Everything
Now everything's different
It is sweeter
On your tongue

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

A symphony
Slow music of longing
Plays in movements
Inside your head
There are no ghosts
No ghosts that can shake you
Like they used to
Anymore

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

You can see the road ahead in your dream
The engine's more a sigh than a scream
Your ghosts look more like angels from there
The coast comes like a raft of warm air

If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get
If this is all you ever asked for
Then this is all you'll get

Snow Patrol The Symphony Comments
  1. A.... ....

    The song is simply ruined after 1:24.
    Started with so much potential, even gave me chills, and then it seems to turn into another cheap party teen song.

  2. P.... ....

    Love, love, love, love, love, love and forever. x

  3. S.... ....

    Wooden floors, wooden floors whisper..........😍😍

  4. l.... c....

  9. c.... M....

  10. C.... ....

    This song is so underrated! It's so beautiful!!!!
    What I like the most about it is the rise. It starts rather calm and ends as a symphony. Brilliant song!

  11. a.... ....

  14. M.... P....

    BIUTIFUL SONG !!!!!!!!!!!! Snow Patrol are one of THE BEST bands in the last decade !!!!!!!!......and yet still quite under-rated IMO.

  15. M.... ....

    Great groove!

  16. S.... C....

    A symphony, slow music of longing <3

  17. M.... M....

    If this is all you ever asked for
    Then this is all you'll get

  18. S.... J....

    This song is already a classic in my opinion

  19. 1.... ....

    *Crowds

  20. 1.... ....

    18-completing high school - Justin Bieber is alright. Not all of his songs are absolutely amazing but your opinions are biased when it comes to music. Learn to open yourself to all music and you will notice every artist has and does something special. Just because everyone dislikes the kid gives no reason for you to join them even tho they are your friends. Give me a reason that doesn't say he sucks at singing that he is a bad singer I will join the crows and disregard everything i just said.

    1.... ....

    He is actually a good singer, I am from the future though and have seen his songs get minimumally better but him as a person just worse. He kinda is a terrible person. But unfortunately some artist *cough cough Hip Hop and Trap Rap* are just in it for the money and are not original, boring, and so vapid and unemotional that it makes me sad as a music lover. Anyway now that this is 20-almost 17 you would either be in college or starting a career good luck with that. It's not everyday you get a reply on a 3 year old youtube comment.

    1.... ....

    His old stuff was awful, his current stuff is actually good and he's no longer a laughing stock.

    Anyway, to the point I wanted to get at. Why did you think to post this on a SNOW PATROL song? We're you that retarded 5 years ago?

    1.... ....

    Itz4D Lol. I don't know why JB is too famous compared to SP. Well SP is far more talented, anyways i just love this band. Me, being in 20’s and but chose to love this amazing lads.

  21. M.... A....

    the end always makes me cry

  22. J.... E....

    I don't judge anything. However, I can't help but question why anyone would like Justin Bieber, since he in fact, sucks out loud.

  23. W.... H....

    So you judge someone's intelligence on what music they like? Yeah because that is a brilliant method

  24. J.... E....

    That's okay. Smart people do not like Justin Bieber. ;)

  25. E.... L....

    i dont have to hate Justin Bieber to like Snow Patrol. It has nothing to do with it.

  26. L.... ....

    Thanks, snowpatroladdict, and Snow Patrol for this. Love & Peace to All

  27. s.... ....

    This is a sweet Snow Patrol symphony. This song is called The Symphony for a reason;)

  28. T.... L....

    Best song on the cd! Doubt they'll ever release this as a single though. Too bad and most people will never hear this brilliance!

  29. T.... h....

    Bitch please, this is snow patrol all the way! :D

  30. T.... h....

    Snow patrol <3 , Is it just me or is the chorus about a girl getting hit by a car?

  31. j.... g....

    snow patrol you are one step above the others. your songs are the best.

  32. H.... ....

    song's amazing

  33. A.... A....

    I guess 12 people like Justib Bieber.

  34. d.... m....

    agreed! :)

  35. T.... ....

    This song very much has the feel of their older works and their newer sound. It's fucking fantastic! They've progressed so well compared to other bands who change how they sound. <3

  36. C.... M....

    I love this song along with The Weight Of Love... Way to much <3

  37. P.... R....

    11 people are Chasing Cars

  38. T.... L....

    I don't hate... I think this is probably one of the most BEAUTIFUL songs I have EVER Heard. It is just Deeply Emotive and equally Sad and Elating! I find it very sad for i think of someone very close to me whom is not here anymore... this could be 7,8,9,10 minutes long and i wouldn't ask for it to be one second shorter! This is a deeply personal feeling, i just feel that it is so Heartwrenching that it wouldn't be blemished at all by being longer!

  39. D.... F....

    I love the verse, but the chorus is a bit annoying.

  40. H.... T....

    Longer? Are you serious? Isn't this album their longest already? I perfectly understand when emotions need to be drawn out, and can result in brilliance sometimes (e.g. "The Lightning Strike" on the previous record)... but not on this one. Still a fairly good track though, so don't hate.

  41. H.... T....

    You're right. A lot of the tracks seem to be in need of serious editing work... SP think they are releasing a club mix version, when in reality it should be a 4-minute belter.

  42. S.... ....

    Double double nine, double nine ♪

  43. A.... U....

    q buena cancion gracias doblenueve por tocar esta cancion

  44. C.... M....

    I wish this was shorter. I don't mean it in a cheeky way, i love the song, but at the end I think it just drags on at the end :/

  45. W.... L....

    Yeah! Snow Patrol at the Crystal Ballroom Portland, Oregon; May 2nd.

  46. C.... ....

    If this is all you'll ever ask for, then this is all you'll get!

  47. f.... c....

    Love this song!

  48. M.... A....

    At 1:27 start's the best part of the song !

  49. s.... ....

    @NoWeSpace

    yes there is.!!. and what a coincidence! it is called "all over the world" (by the Pixies)... .

  50. R.... T....

  68. M.... T....

    this is a fantastic album Finally a group that came with another excellent album, im in love with 'eyes open' personally but this is even better once you get used to certain tracks as they area little less commercial but with fantastic lyrics and rhythm, its a must buy in order to rip in high quality

  69. R.... F....

    Such a good song, didn't think I'd like it. Now I have to buy the album. :)

  70. D.... R....

    @TheRafael42 The longer the better! c:

  71. r.... ....

    Sometimes I listen to first vocal part, sometimes the instrumental, sometimes that last vocal part and when I treat myself the whole thing.

  72. S.... ....

    Loveeee this song, one of my faves from the album.

  73. S.... ....

    if i ever have to write a 10 page long paperwork, i know what song i'll listen to!
    i heard that song yesterday the first time on the ipod of my mum, and i never listened to snow patrol before. because i don't like the music they made earlier.. but this ! wow.. simply amazing.

  74. N.... ....

    There is no better song all over the world

  75. S.... ....

    Hey, I love this song more than Chasing Cars and Run! :)

  76. T.... ....

    It's good, but it lasts forever

  77. k.... ....
