Feel
Bombay Bicycle Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can feel it now that you've gone
I have made you all that I want
I know you're keeping to your own sound
You're running out of sight
When the light goes down
Said you'll be waiting 'til the night's done
But there's no one
And the world went on
But I always knew you'd come

Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one hope

I can feel it coming so clear
I can feel you already there
And I can see you with my eyes shut
You're running in my head and I can't keep up
Said you'll be waiting for the next one
But I always knew, I always knew you'd come

Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one hope

Our love was long, so long
And then forgotten like an old song
You said your life went on
But I always knew, I knew you'd come

Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know
Just one feeling, just one feeling




Just one feeling, just one feeling
Then I know

Line by Line Meaning

I can feel it now that you've gone
I am experiencing a distinct feeling now that you are no longer present


I have made you all that I want
I have placed all the significance of my desires onto you


I know you're keeping to your own sound
I understand that you are staying true to your individual perspective


You're running out of sight
You are evading my vision


When the light goes down
As the illumination fades away


Said you'll be waiting 'til the night's done
You communicated that you will wait until the night is complete


But there's no one
However, there are no individuals present


And the world went on
The universe continued to function


But I always knew you'd come
I perpetually had the knowledge that you would return


Just one feeling, just one feeling
Only a singular emotion, a singular sensation


Then I know
Then I comprehend


I can feel it coming so clear
I can distinctly sense something approaching


I can feel you already there
I am already sensing your presence


And I can see you with my eyes shut
With my eyes closed, I can visualize your image


You're running in my head and I can't keep up
You are causing my thoughts to run wild and I cannot keep up


Said you'll be waiting for the next one
You declared that you shall wait for the subsequent event


But I always knew, I always knew you'd come
But I consistently had the knowledge that you would arrive


Our love was long, so long
Our affection was extensive, extremely lengthy


And then forgotten like an old song
And then disregarded like an outdated melody


You said your life went on
You conveyed that your life continued forward


But I always knew, I knew you'd come
But I perpetually had the awareness that you would return


Just one feeling, just one feeling
Only a singular emotion, a singular sensation


Just one hope
Only a single aspiration


Then I know
Then I comprehend

And I can see you with my eyes shut

this 2008-2014 era of indie music was so different within groups yet so unique

@MixRafTec

I listened to the 2001-2007 first era of indie music and this second era always sounded like the next generation. Now looking back.. it was also a good moment in the history of this genre

@LightLife4

Though the 2001-7 era saw brilliant indie revival the 2008-14 era saw more, exciting indie being embraced. Creativity was no longer being feared

@thomHD

Really living up to their name with this one

@g150898

Exactly my thought

@beastygeorge

I love the fusion on this!

@solidn6
