Talk Lyrics

(written by: Coldplay)

Send "Talk" Ringtone to your Cell

Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you 'cause
I don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
Oh I wanna talk to you

You can take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do
Something that's never been done

Are you lost or incomplete
Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece
Tell me how you feel
Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak
And they're talking it to me

So you take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do
Something that's never been done
Or do
Something that's never been done

So you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
You'll tell anyone who'll listen but you feel ignored
Nothing's really making any sense
Come on
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk

This song is completely indistinguishable from your typical U2 song, especially the guitar.

The song it gets its tune from is Computer Love by Kraftwerk.

I have both versions, ha!!!! I downloaded the unreleased version first, and when I went to look for the lyrics, the song and the lyric didn't match. At first I thought this song was being covered by another group, but that would be copyright infringement. I finally was able to download the current version a week later. This is the first website where I could find the lyrics for the unreleased version. the current version is longer, it has a musical interlude in the middle of the song, and it sounds "crispier."

This is an alternate version of Coldplay's song "Talk" that was originally intended to be released on X&Y, apparently this version was leaked onto peer to peer sharing before it was completed which explains the two versions.

Under the great North Star
Try to work out where you are
In the silence of the sea
I don't know where I'll be

In the future, in the past
Going nowhere...much too fast
When I go there, go with me
When I go there, go with me

Cause I don't know where I'm going and I wanna talk
I feel like I'm going where I've been before
And I wanna talk

Take a picture of
Something that you're not sure of
Bring it back to show to me
But I don't know what I see

In the future, find a home
getting nowhere on your own
Got to find your missing piece

Cause you don't know where you're going but you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
Nothing's really making any sense at all
You tell anyone who'll listen but you feel ignored

Let's talk
let's talk
Do you wanna talk

I'm (unknown)
I'm trying to send a sign
In a language I don't speak

I tried but i can't get through
I'm trying to get to you
But you're difficult to reach
Won't you talk to me

So you don't know where you're going and you wanna talk
You feel like you're going where you've been before
Let's talk
let's talk

I'd like to request some remotely readable lyrics for this song. All this is is pure shit.

I don't know why, but ever since Christmas 05, every time I hear this song I feel like crying. It's probably because ever since October 05 my older brother has been distancing himself from the family, all because my other brother's wife got into a fight with his girlfirend, and then the whole big thing over the baby, and well...he didn't even ring on my brithday, took him two whole days to remember.

Okay, I am crying now. I'm gonna stop typing now coz I can't see the keyboard properly anymore....

Oh brother my lover...
I love this band so much! I can't even tell.
While weveryone thought "Clocks" it's some single, three years ago, I knew it's something good.
And now after so many best songs, we know it's not just single, and so on.

My dad said this sounds like U2. Newsflash: Coldplay sounds nothing like U2!

I have spoken my piece. And whoever said that coldplay's songs are about drugs needs to wake up and smell the well-water, because I have yet to find ANY song about drugs.
SC GK1 19/11/2005 10:06:14
this song is awesome christmas number 1!!!! coldplay r awesome!!!
Jara 28/10/2005 08:35:57
this song is so beautiful and uplifting

"Theo" take a look at some other lyrics, listen to the songs.. the musical side as well as the lyrical if your attention span can take it, you never know, musical appreciation might lead you to detect more than an audible tone in the songs, perhaps an emotional one too. A subtler image.
Dont you find that love or passion or problematic situations are often likened to drugs because of the destructive nature of the substances? Or that metaphors are used in order to get across a point..? Exaggeration even. Perhaps consider characterisation.
Superficially all songs can be linked to drugs. Broaden you mind, look a bit deeper, then come back and admit that you are wrong. Because you are.

ALL OF COLDPLAY'S SONGS ARE ABOUT DRUGS!!!

...Chris Martin doesn't like it when you hide his Mary Jane. I think he wants to talk.

Jamie and Tommy you're thinking of the American version of this song.

Next time, get your facts right.

The lyrics here are from an old version of the song which leaked onto the net. Apparently when someone said this version of the song should be the first single, Coldplay canned the song. It made its way back onto the album after a rewrite and reorganisation.

Are you retarded or something?!?! the only word in these lyrics that are right are "Let's Talk"... Make sure you listen to the RIGHT song before you post the lyrics... f**kin' dumbass...

Where the hell did you get these lyrics from??
Proper ones below:

Talk

Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you cos I don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
Oh I wanna talk to you.....

You can take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do something thats never been done

Are you lost or incomplete
Do you feel like a puzzle you cant find your missing piece
tell me how you feel...
Well I feel like they're talking in a language I dont speak
and they're talking it to me

So you take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do something thats never been done
Or do something thats never been done

So you don't know where you're going and you wanna talk
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
You'll tell anyone who'll listen but you feel ignored
And nothings really making any sense no more
Lets talk
Lets talk...
Lets talk
Lets talk...

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time.
The time is now 11:54:15.
