Snow Patrol - Crack The Shutters Lyrics

Snow Patrol - Crack The Shutters Lyrics

You cool your bed-warm hands down on the broken radiator,
And when you lay them freezing on me, I mumble “can you wake me later?”
But I don’t really want you to stop and you know it so it doesn’t stop you
And run your hands from my neck to my chest

Crack the shutters open wide, I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cuz’ the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

It’s been minutes, it’s been days, it’s been all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair and the cold side of the pillow
Your hills and valleys are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber, I dream all this again

Crack the shutters open wide, I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cuz’ the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

Crack the shutters open wide, I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute
Cuz’ the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

Snow Patrol - A Hundred Million Suns

“Snow Patrol handily manages the challenge of following up breakthrough album “Eyes Open” on “A Hundred Million Suns.” The music’s inherent dignity ensures that lyrics like “Kiss me, kiss me/Life is way too short to scream and shout” don’t draw smirks, and it keeps the brazen romanticism and sentimentality from becoming too glaring. “If There’s a Rocket Tie Me to It” nods to Coldplay, preserving the driving urgency of previous hit “Chasing Cars.” “Take Back the City” and “Engines” also hijack the beat, but midtempo winners “Lifeboats” and “The Golden Floor” are much better realized. Three-act, 16-minute finale “The Lightening Strike” recounts being forced to take shelter with a beloved in a storm and the revered memory of those transcendent moments. “I don’t want to run/Just overwhelm me,” Gary Lightbody sings—an ample description for the album’s overall intentions. —Christa L.
