Linger
by The Cranberries

If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn
Don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining every day
For me
I swore I would be true
And fellow, so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just want to be with you
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

One of my finest memories was in my college years when this song came on the radio in my buddy's car on our way home the morning after a night of heavy drinking in the city. The Sun was shining, the windows were open, it was summertime, we were on the highway, and it was the best hangover ever. Something about this song and that moment really captured the spirit of that time in my life. So that's what I always remember when I hear this amazing song.

I wouldn't glamorize binge drinking, especially for the sake of the young ones who aren't yet tainted and who may be influenced by such words. Such a beautiful scene except for the heavy drinking and aiding in destroying of your temple and mind.

"Linger"

If you, if you could return, don't let it burn, don't let it fade.

I'm sure I'm not being rude, but it's just your attitude,
It's tearing me apart, It's ruining everything.

I swore, I swore I would be true, and honey, so did you.
So why were you holding her hand? Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time? Was it just a game to you?

But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?

Oh, I thought the world of you.
I thought nothing could go wrong,
But I was wrong. I was wrong.
If you, if you could get by, trying not to lie,
Things wouldn't be so confused and I wouldn't feel so used,
But you always really knew, I just wanna be with you.

But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?

And I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?

You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger

This is one of those songs my father used to play quite frequently--I always used to listen to the harmony and melody and it always caught my ear. It reminds me of those Sunday afternoons where the sun would shine through the window and the only sounds in the house were music. I would just sit on the couch and listen. And I always loved my father's music--and I am so happy to reconnect with it now that I'm older. It takes on a whole new meaning yet it takes me back--a nostalgia of strings and melodic vocals. I love music because I find it amazing how much emotion it brings about in my life.

And 3,000 miles away from home because of school, I love this song even more because it makes me feel like I'm that kid again, lying on the couch with my dad right there, jamming to his favorite tunes. <3

are you a good enough person; morally speaking; to enter into heaven and escape the Everlasting burnings of hell?

=-.,.,,.,.,,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,Have you ever used God's name in vain before?

.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,..,,. Have you ever hated anyone before for any reason?

.,.,.,...,.,..,.,.,.,.Have you ever looked at a person with lust in your heart???

.,.,.,..,.,.,..,.,.,., Have you ever looked at pornography before?.,..,.,..,..,..,., have you ever masturbated before?

Have you ever had sex outside of marriage?

Have you ever stolen anything before; irrespective of its value?

How many lies have you told before in your whole entire life?

Have you ever lusted after material possessions or money before?

Have you ever downloaded music or movies illegally that you did not pay for?

If you have
committed these transgressions...
The holy God Of Heaven sees you as a liar
and a thief and an adulterer and a blasphemer
and a fornicator and a hater at heart and you must
face a holy God on the day of judgement! Will you be innocent or guilty on the day of Wrath?''

Will you go to heaven or to hell?

Revelation 21 says... "All liars will have their part in the Lake of Fire!"

The holy scriptures in the word of God declare and warn that..."NO Thief no adulterer no blasphemer no fornicator and no hater by any means shall ever inherit the Kingdom of Heaven!" you have broken God's perfect holy laws and Jesus Christ has paid your fine with his own sinless blood...If you repent and turn away from all sins and Trust alone in Jesus Christ for salvation, God will forgive every sin you have ever committed and Grant you the free gift of everlasting life!!! If you refuse to repent and turn away from all sin and Trust alone in Christ, then you must pay for your own sins against God yourself on the day of judgement; which means you will spend an eternity in the Lake of Fire in outer Darkness where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth forever and ever and ever!

This song came out around the time my husband died at 37years old. I would cry and cry when I heard it, still do. The violins are intense, and then she sings like an angel. I think although it evokes such deep sadness for me, it's a mix of his memory and the strength of this piece. They were such a powerful sound in their time and still are. Truly sublime, moving, human.

Linger Lyrics

If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn
Don't let it fade
I'm sure It's might be rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining every day
For me
I swore I would be true
And honey, so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just want to be with you
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

You know I'm such a fool for you
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Do have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do have to let it linger?

Prolongar
Se você
Se você puder voltar
Não deixe isso queimar
Não deixe isso desaparecer
Tenho certeza de que não estou sendo rude
Mas é apenas sua atitude
Está acabando comigo
Está estragando tudo

Eu jurei
Eu jurei que seria sincera
E querido, você também jurou
Então porque você estava segurando a mão dela?
É assim que ficamos agora?
Você estava mentindo o tempo todo?
Isso foi só um jogo para você?

Mas estou tão envolvida
Você sabe que sou uma grande tola por você
Você me tem na sua mão, ah, ah ah
Você tem que deixar isso se prolongar?
Você tem que, você tem que, você tem que deixar isso prolongar?

Oh, eu imaginei tudo de você
Eu achei que nada poderia dar errado
Mas eu estava errada
Eu estava errada

Se você
Se você pudesse seguir tentando não mentir
As coisas não seriam tão confusas
E eu não me sentiria tão usada
Mas você realmente sempre soube
Que eu só quero ficar com você

Mas estou tão envolvida
Você sabe que sou uma grande tola por você
Você me tem na sua mão, ah, ah ah
Você tem que deixar isso se prolongar?
Você tem que, você tem que, você tem que deixar isso prolongar?

E estou tão envolvida
Você sabe que sou uma grande tola por você
Você me tem na sua mão, ah, ah ah
Você tem que deixar isso se prolongar?
Você tem que, você tem que, você tem que deixar isso prolongar?

Você sabe que sou uma grande tola por você
Você me tem na sua mão, ah, ah ah
Você tem que deixar isso se prolongar?
Você tem que, você tem que, você tem que deixar isso prolongar?

You'll be surprised to know how much your music influenced a city called Peshawar, in Pakistan. Linger was the soundtrack for us in Peshawar of the 90s recovering from a war imposed on us. A soundtrack for opening up and experiencing the rest of the world took for granted. A soundtrack for looking forward to good things in the 90s. You will NEVER know what your music meant to a city forced to rewind to an artificial system in the 2000s. You are a memorabilia from a short window for a bunch or boys and girls foolish enough to believe that their city might change. Thank you for that brief memory. Rest in Peace, Dolores! The world looks like a hell nowadays but your band is that respite in it. Long live music!

I was one of those boys from Peshawar. Going to chief burger, and listening to Linger, Zombie and Ode to my Family on repeat with my dad who was away on his Army mission..... I was in Netherlands when Dolores passed away, I remember i was in the city center of Enschede and I just started crying - crying nonstop. I couldn't keep my tears inside.
She was such a special human being - with such special music.

In the mid '90s I worked at a newspaper in Bennington. After deadline every night, midnight, most of us in the newsroom walked down Main Street to a place called Mickey's, by day a Greek pizza joint on the first floor, by night a waterhole on the second floor. Dark and dingy and smoky with cliche barflies and a jukebox machine stocked with an array of music for soul, including this song, and just about every night I played it because it fit the mood of the scene, always. Seems like yesterday yet it's been 25+ years. Insane. Dolores O'Riordan's sad silky crooning is eternal.

And Abed hired an Irish singer

If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn, don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything

I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why you were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you

But I'm in so deep, you know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger

Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, I was wrong

If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you

And I'm in so deep, you know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger

And I'm in so deep, you know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger

You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger

You have to look in different places for good music, sometimes you hear new good stuff on the radio but it seems (to me) to be more rare... However I don't think that with all the options at our fingertips that we could listen to even a small fraction of what is out there on YouTube alone. I have had very good luck finding great artists online.

The song basically highlights the fact that when you really like or love someone, even when they hurt you, your love doesn't die immediately. Feelings can't be turned on and off like a light bulb. It takes time to heal, esp. when the heart is involved. It hurts so much when this happens because even know you know you should just let it go, you cant seem to. That is why the words "such a fool for you" makes so much sense. We become colossal idiots when we're in love.

Nicolas Cage is exactly right the love even when someone has hurt you physically, emotionally and socially takes over that there is no reason or sense- A huge fool that can't let go even when there is pain.

Isn't that always the case with love? Especially when we are young? Then as we look back we think " what was I thinking? ". But at my age now I can still look back and still feel those feelings of love for some women in my past.
