Radiohead - True Love Waits (Live in Chicago)




i heard this song just last Monday, and it became an instant favorite of mine. sabi ng best friend kong si Alex, lumang kanta na raw ng Radiohead ito. na-bring up lang ito kasi nag-jam kami nung linggo kina Kiko and we arranged Alex's song "Like Hate", and ipinarinig ko sa kanya ang isa kong chord pattern na matagal ko nang dini-develop for a song. sabi ni Alex, katunog daw nung "True Love Waits"yung chord pattern kong yun. when i listened to the song, may similarities nga - and pareho silang malungkot pakinggan. ewan ko ba kung bakit gandang-ganda ako sa mga tragic songs - when i heard this, i got hooked immediately. i posted the lyrics as well, for the curious and for the melancholy-mooded. here he is, the great Thom Yorke and Radiohead...


True Love Waits
Radiohead


I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
And wash your swollen feet

Just don't leave
Don't leave

I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kitten smile

Just don't leave
Don't leave

And true love lives
On lollipops and crisps
And true love waits
In haunted attics

Just don't leave
Don't leave

Just don't leave
Don't leave
