Lyrics
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and
Just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things
Will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
#SnowPatrol #ChasingCars - เพลง
I would listen to this while laying next to my husband who was going through stage 4 cancer. I only wanted to soak up every moment with him and forget the world. 12 years post stem cell transplant, he is still with me and we will celebrate 42 years in June. I still want to soak up every moment with him.
love to you and your husband
Hope he gets better
❤️❤️ I hope he recovers x
Prayers for you and your husband. I hope he gets ok.
That is the most gorgeous connection to a song I've ever heard, love both of you 💕
Reminder for future generations: Do not let this legendary song die.
We won't.
Still here . Such a song .Perfectly flawed
Never
Never
Ofccc
IT’S 2024 AND YES I’LL STILL BE LAYING HERE WITH YOU BABY.
❤
I've said it before - my dad laid by my mum in their bed as she died. Despite being wounded many times in WWII, it was the bravest thing he ever did.
Bless you
How do people say such beautiful things...
My Dad is an Army veteran. He was right there by my mom's side to care for her as she lost her battle with lung and brain cancer. They were married 52 years at the time my Mom crossed over to be with Jesus. Hard to believe it's been almost 7yrs since we lost my mom. Next year 2025 would make 60 yrs of marriage. My Dad will be 84 soon and is still going strong. God bless you!
Probably the most honest, purest and innocent love song ever written.
I totally agree with you..
100%true
This is a real touch song.
Listen to How he loves by john mark macmillan - and his testimony to how it was written.
Thats a kind of love that few will ever know
It's clearly a song written by a dog to its human, which, yes, makes it the purest, truest love song ever.
Makes me cry.. My wife passed away in June 2007 and now my little 13 year baby passes away in 2016..life is not fair. A beautifull song that brings memories down my cheeks. Rest In Peace my angels.
Geo M. So sorry for your loss. My wife of 26 years passed away 3-8-18. So difficult as u know.
Hey mate, sorry to hear your loss. Always remember to keep your head up and look forward in life. There are many good things to happen to you.
I’m so sorry. Rip
So sorry you have this pain to go through, love to you and yours in hope it can be of some help.
God bless
Anyone in 2024?
Me
Yes!
Yes!!!!
Nah I’m here from 2025
Yes
still one of the most beautiful songs ever created, after all these years i still get goosebumps when i hear it. Amazing
Me 2! Goosebumps an amazing one. That will last forever
Saw them twice play this breathtaking Gary's a great oerformer too
@@sandrablackburn4583 1
I'm getting goosebumps reading others do too! 😃
This is a legendary song. If anyone says it's bad, they're lying
This song is repetitive af what are you talking about
i dont like this song and im not lying.
i mean it's alright but far from snow patrol's best tbh
Exactly I am so sick of every one saying that snowpatrol is in the illuminati as long with linken park ,Sia Gwen Stefano than worth liberals control over the media &Hollywood's involvement in this pedophilia & how Oprah &Obama has a strange mind control over the blacks &brown people ignorant of the fact that the dems haven't figured out that they aren't getting anywere they think they dumb down the blacks ,&brown to get their vote
Or tone deaf! ;-) x
Only sad vibes. Anyone here with me still listening to this song now?
Yup
I'm listening in September 2020
Oh yes my friend.
Yep ✌️🥺
yes, me tonight lol
My 50 year old metalhead self only really heard this song for the first time a few days ago and was absolutely floored... For me the song is such a potent reminder of misplaced love that played out in a misspent youth, chasing things impossible in the end.
\m/
My brother pass away last June, he loves this song, I can't help but crying anytime I heard this.Brother I love you so much... until the next meeting!!!
as I held my son in my arms knowing he was never going to recover from his injuries from the car accident, I cried because I knew I'd never see his Smile again, I'd never hear his voice again, I'd never feel his super tight hugs again, this song came on and I knew at that very moment he was going to leave me forever to chase cars like he did when he was a little boy on his bicycle...I Miss him so much, I Lubb Yew Jonathan Neal to the Moooon & Back, to the Moooon & Back....Da'Mommmie
May God bless you and your son. I pray that you are coping well, and that he is enjoying heaven. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Hayes Riviere thank you my dear...I live my Life, One Day at a Time....Music helps!!!
ValeryAnn Crocker sorry for ur loss stay strong sending loads of hugs

I can't believe how upset I've become at reading some of the comments here. I hope those of you who suffered loss have gotten through your bereavement. Bless you all.
Far from it 16 years later.❤
Wasn't expecting the comments to be this heartbreaking. My heart goes out to anyone here who has lost a loved one.
The 2007 version of "Chasing Cars" is one of the most beautiful videos made. Raw emotion that rings so true to the soul. His hands...his mouth...his eyes...his voice...the need...is breathtaking. Will always stay with me. Definitely will always be on my top 10 list.
You have it the same feeling ever time I watch this
His mouth is cute
Aww his hands and fingers are so cute 😍 😢 😭 💕 💖 💗 😍
There's just something about him, besides looking like my late husband. He somehow makes me feel that my husband is by my side.
His feet and toes are adorably super sweet
my husband recently passed away and this was his favorite song,i remember he sang me this when we were teenagers
Dana Scott i'm so sorry for your loss...
I used to sing this song before he died 8yrs ago last week before he died he wanted me to sing this &run he said remember even if I can't see him he will always be with me I hope so my son is now fighting cancer again first this time leukemia while working with farm animals pesticides cleaning up with chemicals this I need all the strength to go back he needs me I know how you are grieving don't know how long I am sorry for your grief
I am so sorry for you.
This song is not soo old and your husband was too young to die....😭 Sorry for your loss
i don't care hun this ain't the place for you to be mourning such a pathetic way to get likes
It’s a beautiful day to save lives 😭😭
😢
❤❤❤😢😢😢
When my husband was in the hospital and we didn’t knw what was gona happen I’d just listen to this song and pray and cry I’d get more time with him 🥺 thank god he’s still here with me chasing cars 🥹❤
I always tear up when I listen to this.
...she was everything I've ever wanted...
i know the feeling man, i'm sorry
Don't worry, it reminds me of a girl I wanted to be with, I empathise with you 😰
Thanks, guys.
i feel you....😢
Ian Randolph I feel you man, keep strong
Still listening to this, March 2024. It's all I need atm. Love & Hope. For everyone. ❤
Same. Hugs.
June 2024
My girlfriend has a few years left to live. We lay here forgetting the world. Thank you so much ❤️
❤❤❤❤❤
is a song/track about finding the strength to stay in a relationship despite outside pressures and challenges. The lyrics refer to wanting to create their own unique life and world, and forgo the expectations placed on them by the world. The refrain of the chorus, "If I lay here/if I just lay here/would you lie with me and just forget the world?" captures the central sentiment of the song - escaping from the world and its demands in order to focus on the relationship. Ultimately, it is a song about the special bond shared between two people who stay faithful and devoted to each other despite the trials they face and the outside pressures they experience.
Seriously, just one of the most heart-wrenching and heartbreaking songs around.
I sang this song to my husband on his deathbed, we were both crying especially the garden bursting in life, that was always a special time when we walk through my flower garden, I hope we'll get to do again I miss our little talks, Gary looks just like him, so every night I watch this, I don't ever want to forget what he looked like, I can't let go
😩Be Strong! Take care! I'm so sorry for your loss!😢😢
+Science Freak Thankyou I was starting to heal than my stepson Brooks started to text me for11days telling me before my husband died he said he regretted staying with me I if he made it he was going to divorce me,I can't seem to get out of this awful night mare he told me constantly how much he loved me,I don't know what to believe
+Raina bosworthf Believe what your hubby told you! He is gone, you must hold on to his words to you!
Are you still single?
@@johnniemills9905 yes I just don't have any interest in another man I tried to date but it's not fair to take up someone's time when you know it will never go any further
I had this on loop play while my wife passed away it will always remind me of how much love we had for each other ❤
Im sorry for your loss. ❤🩹
You will never forget your great memories mate take care x
Anyone here in 2024? Anyways have a good day
Yes, I’m here! ❤️
And me
Me too
Eu também. Do nada lembrei dessa música... Eu ouvia muito antes.
Hi I'm here hope you are having a good day 😊 beautiful song for my soul
This song popped-up in my mind when my mother was hospitalized after a severe stroke. She could not move her arms, her legs, she could not swallow and barely talk. They only thing she could do was just lay there: “If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?”. A few days later she died of a pulmonary embolism.
Two months after that, my little boy had played with the radio and had probably turned on the timer/alarm function. Somewhere in the middle of the night I heard music playing. As I went downstairs in the dark to turn it off, I heard that same song again: “If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?”. I like to think that this was not a coincidence…
Beautiful story
My great grandmother suffered a severe stroke when I was right at about 14 years old, it destroyed her and confined her to a wheel chair and unable to speak intelligibility. I was only able to get her to say "I love telephone" and she cried while saying it, she knew that it wasn't what she had meant. Thankfully, she passed peacefully in her sleep. It was sad to see such a strong willed woman lose all of her independence.
Wow that’s amazing. Most definitely not a coincidence. Ive worked with the elderly before, and I really believe that the very young and they very old have a close connection to each other. They each have a closer connection to God, becuase they were just with him, or will be soon, and it is real shame that we lose it throughout our lives. This is a beautiful story, and I hope both your mom and your little boy are doing well
This comment really touched my soul and heart. What a sad, yet at the same time beautiful story.
♡
I feel you my mother passed from a pulmonary embolism and a brain bleed
One of my favorite songs
Brilliant chills running down the spine
Kachow
❤👍

I’m loosing a friend. I don’t know how to feel.
It’s almost 2024. First time heard it in 2007. Brings a lot of good memories back then, especially memories with someone that you love, who had passed away. Stay healthy and enjoy live to its fullest ❤️
I realize “chasing cars” refers to something else, but I always imagine just lying next to that special someone, talking about nothing special, but feeling that connection - almost as though the deepest parts of you are physically connected.
The most pure song ever written. Gary is just a genius and we are all living in the time where he and his immeasurable talent exist!!! Rather easy on the eye too! ♥️
Still listening to this in 2024 🤌🏻✨
I love this. Still. Always will.
Inlve not seen the music video yet but hearing the lyrics i get the image of a couple laying in the grass having a picnic, putting aside everything else, every burden, all the stress and weight on their shoulders, just to enjoy quality time together :)
Its beautiful yet sad almost
Timeless.
My heart aches for all of you who have lost loved ones. I am so sorry. I pray for peace.
❤ty
"Would you lie with me and just forget the world?" Talk about a song giving you the chills....bbbrrrrr
This isn’t just a song, this is something you experience
It's still my favourite music till today for over 20 years
This is a magical song. So many people can connect to it and it seems to open up memories that were lost. Thanks for writing this song, it means a lot to me.
The wrath of a lord jesus.
I heard this by accident actually on XM and was completely floored by it. How did I miss this all these years. A very very moving song with a haunting melody
Still listening in 2023. So many memories.
This song deserves more then 14mil views... Forget what we're told
Before we get too old!!
i get chills down my body every time i hear this song because it reminds me of the saddest time in my life. People have gone through so much worse but i will still share. I was so depressed in quarter 3 of school. I was tired of getting rejected. I thought the world was against me. I cried everyday, listened to sad music and looked up depressing quotes. it got so bad i cut myself and no one asked about it. This made me think no one cared. i often though of the easiest ways to die. Then someone i will never forget. A friend that is so caring, loving, and sweet. I dont know what i would do without her. i cryed so hard writing this comment.
Can't thank you enough for this masterpiece. This and Our House, for me, are the best songs EVER written.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS I HEARD
I probably listened to this song a million times it never gets old
My mum sang this song to me when I was little every time she put me to bed. And now she’s gone and I can’t hear this without bawling my eyes out
I am so sorry for you.
Crazy how songs like this mean so much to different people. Stay strong people ❤️
This song always takes me back to 2008. Catching a late-night train from Town hall Sydney to Revesby on the way back from uni. Listening to this song on quite train. I can't believe its been 16 years
This is the better video for Chasing Cars.
one of the greatest songs ever
Very moving song. I'm crying thinking about everyone I've lost.
One of the best songs in the last 20 years😉
I wish to turn back the time to the good old days. It makes me cry remembering all those wonderful and innocent memories shared with my cousins and friends when we are young just playing without worrying anything. Life is both great and depressing sometimes.
Love is: All that I am, all that I ever was, is here in your perfect eyes. Thank you, Snow Patrol, this is what I my wife and believe in!!!
Wow. How come I never watch this version before?
Lets be honest guys.
No one found this in their recommendation we searched for it.
Of course.
Yeo
True story
Yes
I only searched it up cos i'm thinking bout ending my pain
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world...
No, Dude I don't even know you like wtf.
Redlightningwolf its the lyrics lol
LOL
No way I will not spend my life laying there with some creep that's just weird
Birdie Games ITS JUST THE LYRICS LOL!
This video was no.1 in VH1 top videos of the decade 😍
I will remember this.
This song. It has to be savoured.
Sounds like surrender, no walls, no promises, no demands. Almost a sort of meditation.
Arnold Van Kampen but definitely a form of commitment - forgetting the world - forsaking everything but the one.
Lost my young sister then her daughter 5 months later
i miss my dog, so im here to listen to our song.
No one can change my mind he is THE BEST
This song holds such special meaning for me. I sang this to my wife at our wedding. 💞
This is a really emotional, wonderful song. Very recommendable
I’m in a dark place right now and this is one of my comfort songs
Hope you feel better soon
I hope in the time that's passed, you have found your light, and are shining bright
Through grey skies come clear
Mental health is horrible I feel your pain I’m always there!!!
The light is there we have to give it time
Hugs
The relaxed and calm, satisfied man despite everything...
(Der trotz Allem entspannt und gelassene zufriedene Mann...)
This video is beautiful.
EVERYTIME I LISTEN TO THIS I WANT TO CRY ALL NIGHT 😭
Bro same 😞😞😞. You wrote this 4 years ago time flies to fast nothing we can do 😭😭
A song that makes your soul scream......
My son's first guitar solo aged 7 makes this song memorable.
Brings me back to high school days. Nostalgia
Gosh, I never get bored of this song! It's so great!
Oh My God!!! I Found It!!! This song causes the deepest emotion I ever had.
I can listen to this song all night long seriously
I lost my husband to small cell lung cancer a year and a half ago. This song was a reminder that we were each other’s safe haven from the world outside. I can’t listen to it without missing him.
Es gibt keinen Song auf dieser Welt, der besser ist!😍
"I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all"
CHASING CARS
by
SNOW PATROL
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
😭
Thank you for lyrics ,I forgot the world
🙏💜
The "I need your grace to remind me to find my own" line is not included here.
Copy pasting lyrics from Google is a nichtsal I'll never understand.
You were like a breath of fresh air. It's like I was drowning and you saved me.
"...just know that these things will never change for us at all.............." hurtful but true
This song is very good at making me sad!
Glowstick ikr
True
Yes, it has all of the cadences for sorrow, and yet love too, a lovely, and ambiguous combination of emotions that connects us all.
oh yes. this song, and Run, kept me company while my mother was dying and my father lay beside her every night., and i drove home hundreds of miles to lie beside my own partner. it was a stressful time. these songs kept me going.
Iraq 2007, Building 932, Tikrit. A piece of me stayed there. Every time I hear this I am there again.
Wow, they went eternal
I spent the night with my dying Boy, a Golden Retriever whom I loved and loved me for 14 years and recorded that moment with this song. Thank you for writing and performing this song and sharing it with us. I uploaded the video here but I do not have your permission to use it so its muted. But thats okay. I have my final hours with my Ben in eternal memory.
Still the best version
The only one song whith two beautiful videos❤😍
Heard this hundreds ov times…. Only now I’m awake…. Do I feel it… wooooow powerful thank u 🙏🧩👽🌈💚💫🐝✨🎉
I was in high school during the 90's, and this reminds me of our music. This is just proof that there is talent to be found among today's artists. Also a fan of The Fray and One Republic.
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
Such a beautiful song makes me tearful every time 😢
Maybe I'm being morbid, but since the first time I heard this song, I knew I wanted it played at my funeral. 😢💔
It brings me to tears everytime I hear it. 😭
My big brother, my best friend... i should have been with you that night and layed whith you in that car... i wasn't. Miss you so much! ❤😢🙏
rip all the grey characters
Oh my god YAAHS!
i cried when he died no joke
I CRI EVERYTIM ;(
RIP mcdreamy
Keya Desai 😭
2024 and it’s still a banger
I love this song I played it for my husband in his funeral, he used to sing it to me, I miss you Scott xt
After I was born my parents drove home with me and turned on the radio, than this song started, now my parents aren't a pair anymore and soon the aren't married anymore, so that song let me feel happy and sad at the same time, in the moment I'm crying and laughing, because life can be so bad and I was depressed, the last 2 years and for 1 month, I'm not depressed anymore, you can do it, stay strong, life can be so beautiful, love yourself, your are perfect, like you are 💗 (sorry for my English, I'm from Germany and I'm only 13)
Have a wonderful life, CarinaAlice. You may have heartbreak and sorrows, but your beautiful spirit will guide you to the joyful. Esperance!
Be strong Beautiful girl. Sending lots of love.
Aw...
Du bist Stark, so so so stark. Du hast ein freund in mich.
