Biography

Snow Patrol are a Northern Irish/Scottish alternative rock band formed at the University of Dundee in 1994. The group comprises Gary Lightbody (vocals, guitar, drums), Johnny McDaid (bass, guitar, backing vocals, keyboards), and Nathan Connolly (guitar, backing vocals). Initially an indie rock band, their first three records, the EP Starfighter Pilot (1997), and the studio albums Songs for Polarbears (1998) and When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up (2001), were commercially unsuccessful and were released by the independent labels Electric Honey and Jeepster respectively. The band then signed on to the major record label Polydor Records in 2002. Snow Patrol rose to national fame with their major label debut, Final Straw, in 2003. The album was certified 5× platinum in the UK and eventually sold over 3 million copies worldwide. Their next studio album, Eyes Open, (2006) and its hit single "Chasing Cars," propelled the band to greater international fame. The album topped the UK Album Charts and was the best-selling British album of the year, selling over 6 million copies worldwide. In 2008, the band released their fifth studio album A Hundred Million Suns, then in 2009 their first compilation album, Up to Now and in 2011 they released their sixth studio album Fallen Empires. During the course of their career, Snow Patrol have won five Meteor Ireland Music Awards and have been nominated for three BRIT Awards. Since the release of Final Straw, the band has sold over ten million albums worldwide.

LYRICS

All we are is an aching that can barely be filled
But if you could just hold me for a moment, I'd be thrilled
And you tell him you love him, but you don't really know
But it seems like the perfect thing to say before you go
Did the doctor just speak then? All you heard was a whirl
Sounded like "Congratulations, sir, it is a girl"
And Belfast continues, never doubted it wouldn't
It's climbed off the canvas more than any other city could've

I've waited for your love so long, dear
I've waited for your love so long

You're fearless, I hear this
And I'll be here falling in love with the sound of your voice
You're golden, stop holding
Onto the memories that rise from the depths of the noise

Your father was shouting 'cause your name caught the wind
And you ran home through rain and muddy streets to get to him
No, I don't have an answer, no, I don't understand
But I'll still be rooting for you, holding out my hand

I've waited for your love so long, dear
I've waited for your love so long

You're fearless, I hear this
And I'll be here falling in love with the sound of your voice
You're golden, stop holding
Onto the memories that rise from the depths of the noise

This is the sound of your voice, it's the way home to everything
This is the sound of your voice, it's the way home to everything
Ah-ah, ah-ah
This is the sound of your voice, it's the way home to everything
Ah-ah, ah-ah
