Hunting High And Low
酷玩(Coldplay) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here, I am
And beyond the reach of my hands
She's sound asleep
And she's sweet another know why
These dreams could've seen her
And I watched her slipping away
And I know I'll be hunting high and low
High...
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and low
High...
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Find her again
Upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark
I can hear the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I know I'll be hunting high and low
High...
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and low
High...
Do you know how it feels to love you?




Do you know how it feels to love you?
High and Low

Here, I am
I am present


And beyond the reach of my hands
I cannot physically touch what I desire


She's sound asleep
The person I am longing for is in deep slumber


And she's sweet another know why
She possesses an indescribable charm


These dreams could've seen her
I have dreamt of her presence


And I watched her slipping away
I have witnessed her leaving my grasp


And I know I'll be hunting high and low
I am determined to search for her everywhere


High...
I will go to great heights to find her


There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
I will do anything to find her


Find her again
I will re-encounter her


Upon this my dreams are depending
My aspirations rely solely on her presence


Through the dark
Even in the midst of darkness


I can hear the pounding of her heart
I can sense her heartbeat calling out to me


Next to mine
Close to my heart


She's the sweetest love I could find
She is my ultimate love


So I know I'll be hunting high and low

Have you ever experienced what it's like to be cherished?


High and Low
In any circumstance, I will continue to search for her.

There is a difference between Cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation they are appreciating how beautiful this culture really is

@bri1550

Cultural appropriation is wearing the culture...it's not appreciating when beyoncé is here wearing cultural pieces. Appreciating is eating the food and learning about it.

@kailey1928

+Brianna Moreno appreciating isnt just about the food

@Sonmmmxuan

+Brianna Moreno there's no rule to ban a foreigner to wear traditional customes, as long as they don't downgrade its value.
