On one of our many business trips, Rich and I watched a documentary on the Foo Fighters. Some of the music was actually really good, so we started sampling more and more of their music. Then we came across this song. We loved it. The Acoustic version was perfect. Rich really related to this song. One night when we were having dinner, he looked up at me very seriously and asked me to promise him “not to stop when I say when“. Thankfully, he never said ‘when’ and I never stopped.
Everlong
Hello, I’ve waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight, I throw myself into
And out of the red
Out of her head, she sang
Come down, and waste away with me
Down with me
Slow how you wanted it to be
And over my head, out of her head she sang
And I wonder when I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you
You’ve got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
Breathe out, so I can breathe you in
Hold you in
And now I know you’ve always been
And out of your head, out of my head I sang
And I wonder when I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you
You’ve got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
And I wonder…
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you
You’ve got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
