Somewhere Only We Know
Keane · He's Just Not That Into You Soundtrack [2009]
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh, simple thing where have you gone ?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of ?
Oh simple thing, where have you gone ?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know ?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know ?
Somewhere only we know
Oh simple thing, where have you gone ?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know ?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go, so why don't we go ?
HmmmaaaAAAA.....Ahhhoooooo....
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know ?
Somewhere only we know, somewhere only we know.
Somewhere Only We Know
Keane's 'Somewhere Only We Know' stands as a defining track from their 2004 debut album 'Hopes & Fears,' though it gained massive global recognition through its inclusion in the 2009 film 'He's Just Not That Into You.' The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of ethereal pop and indie rock, characterized by the haunting vocals of Tim Rice-Oxley and the distinctive, reverb-drenched guitar work that became a hallmark of their sound. Released during the mid-2000s, the recording captures the melancholic yet hopeful atmosphere typical of the era's indie scene. Its enduring popularity stems from its ability to evoke a sense of longing and introspection, making it a staple in the band's discography and a cultural touchstone for fans of the genre.
