Snow Patrol 4 Comments 0 Tags. What if this storm ends? And I don't see you As you are now Ever again The perfect halo Of gold hair and lightning Sets you off against The planet's last dance Just for a minute The silver forked sky Lit you up like a star That I will follow Now it's found us Like I have found you I don't want to run Just overwhelm me What if this storm ends?
And leaves us nothing Except a memory A distant echo I want pinned down I want unsettled Rattle cage after cage Until my blood boils I want to see you As you are now Every single day That I am living Painted in flames All peeling thunder Be the lightning in me That strikes relentless What if this storm ends? Add Your Thoughts 4 Comments. General Comment I take the storm as metaphoric-possibly of many things such as:- -a relationship-what if the relationship ends, and he will no longer see her, to make this easier to describe in all her perfection.
A particular event, sometimes a minor one, can light that person up and show them in all their beauty and perfection. In this description, she is in the centre of the storm ie his life "Be the lightning in me" fits as well- if the storm is his life, the lightning is the thing that fuels the storm- hes asking her to be his strength.

General Comment Ah, the story of my life played over and over by a frightened South American individual : This is a beautiful and clever Snow Patrol track.
Gary's voice is perfect for it. I liked this song even before it became a sad theme song. It's about a couple who are apart.
There is conflict that is preventing them from being together probably one person's reluctance to love. He wants the conflict to end, but worries that she will not be the same person he's envisioned and he worries that he will let her down. Dreams and fantasies are what we make them and often we make them larger than life He actually fears the end of what keeps them apart for only then will the truth be revealed I absolutely adore the line 'just overwhelm me. I love this special man so much.
My Opinion I adore this song. I can't stop listening to it. I love the way the song starts calm and then crescendo's and you feel more excited the more you listen to it.
Almost like it's whipping up a storm inside you. Gary is a beautiful song writer as well as just being beautiful. And I don't see you As you are now Ever again The perfect halo Of gold hair and lightning Sets you off against The planets last dance Just for a minute The siilver-forked sky Lifts you up like a star That I will follow But now it's found us Like I have a found you I don't wanna run Just overwhelm me' I think storm is a methaphor for the relationship and he's constantly afraid that it's going to end too soon.
I think the way the lyrics are written fit into the concept of the album a hundred million suns. Talking about storms and lightning and planets and stars, All unuversal elements. It's very clever. At least that's nothing Except the memory A distant echo I won't pin down I've walked unsettled Rattle cage after cage Until my blood boils I wanna see you As you are now Every single day That I am living Painted in flames A peeling thunder Be the lightning in me That strikes relentless' It's almost like he wants to freeze the relationship as it is now so nothing gets in the way.
He describes her as lightning, like she is dangerous to him because she has struck his heart. Hey guys! I just listened to this song after it suddenly got stuck in my head today I read your thoughts and I have to say I disagree with you both saying the storm in this song is a metaphor for a relationship.
My first guess would be that it's the very opposite. I think that it's about him chasing her or maybe they're already getting together. Ok so what do you guys think of my perspective?

Lyrics from album: A Hundred Million Suns What if the storm ends and I don't see you As you are now ever again? The perfect halo of gold hair and lightning Sets you off against the planet's last dance Just for a minute the silver-forked sky Lifts you up like a star that I will follow But now it's found us like I have a found you I don't wanna run, just overwhelm me What if the storm ends?
At least that's nothing Except the memory, a distant echo I won't pin down I've walked unsettled rattle cage after cage Until my blood boils I wanna see you as you are now Every single day that I am living Painted in flames, a peeling thunder Be the lightning in me that strikes relentless What if the storm ends and I don't see you As you are now ever again?
