One... two...
C C C C
Steal my heart... and hold my tongue I feel my time... my time
has come
Let me in... unlock the door I never felt this way before
Am Fmaj7 C
And the wheels just keep on turning The drummer begins to drum
I don't know which way I'm going I don't know which way I've come
Hold my head... inside your hands I need someone... who
understands
I need someone... someone who hears For you I've waited all these
years
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C Am C Am Am/G C
For you I'd wait... 'Til Kingdom Come Until my day... my day is
done
and say you'll come... and set me free just say you'll wait...
you'll wait for me
In your tears... and in your blood In your fire... and in your
flood
I hear you laugh... I heard you sing I wouldn't change a single
thing
And the wheels just keep on turning The drummers begin to drum
I don't know which way I'm going I don't know what I've become
For you I'd wait... 'Til kingdom come
Until my days... my days are done
Say you'll come... and set me free
Just say you'll wait... you'll wait for me
Just say you'll wait... you'll wait for me
Just say you'll wait... you'll wait for me
感想：
在《Yellow》的吉他刷絃和电吉他强烈的旋律线中，我跟全世界很多人一样
，记住了那个忧郁、情感内敛的歌声。然后是《The Scientist》，一开始简
单的钢琴和絃，马上让人陷落在情感浪潮里，那是无以名状的情感，直到歌
词唱出来，短短几个字所组成的句子，承载的是满满的悲伤和懊悔，很快的
就可以把听歌的人给淹没。
这就是Coldplay抒情歌曲厉害的地方：写歌如同写诗一般，一字一句很精简
，平淡的用语，没有什么故事情节，但是配上干净、浓妆艳 恰如其分的音
乐，却可以深深的打动人心。
Coldplay的这个特色，我觉得在这一首Til Kingdom Come中，挥洒的淋漓尽
致。
Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I've never felt this way before
老实说，歌词所描述的，是一个完全架空的世界。在那个世界，没有特定的
人、事、物，我无法确定它到底在讲什么、在讲谁的故事。可是，我依然深
深的着迷，在那几个文字段落的世界里面。
第一次听这首歌，是在电影院里的《蜘蛛人：惊奇再起》。一个突然拥有超
能力的大学生，溜著滑板，越荡越高，享受速度与玩弄地心引地的快感。当
那躁动的吉他刷弦声响起，我惊奇地发现，这样的一部超人动作电影中，也
可以听到Coldplay的歌声，而且看着电影院大萤幕的画面，是可以美的让所
有的观众屏息。
For you I'd wait 'til kingdom come
Until my days, my days are done
And say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
究竟在等待谁：等待力大无穷的人？等待现身救赎的人？
等待所爱的人……
