this song makes my heart skip a beat. it gives me a nostalgic feeling of happiness and it’s such a beautiful feeling. some days it makes me feel like I’m desperately in love and some days it makes me feel like I’m about to die. and both ways it’s just the most amazing thing.

Great song. Reminds me of the disappointments of my youth, the wanting. But how precious all that is. Well said darbonify - melancholy, hopeful, and I would add from the perspective of age, poignant.

This has gone from a good song on a good album to one of my all time favorite songs on one of my all time favorite albums in a few months time. Such incredible sensitivity in the verse melody. Arguably, of the contemporaries, only Stuart Murdoch or James Mercer could write something like this. The song for me is fragile and melancholy but also hopeful and comforting. I haven't been taken or moved by new music in a very long time. Thank you!

The lyrics, for you people. Walking through the trees, I never really know what's on your mind Is it ever me, or just someone you've left behind? Floating through a dream, I never could make out the words you said Sentences are bouncing back and forth inside my head You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery Fighting through the fog, I can't believe it rained all summer long When every day's a hurricane, you know there's something wrong I see you every day, it's hard to figure out what happens next I cannot decipher conversation in your head You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the local police, we can find comfort in biology We wrote our names on the overpass and I hope it lasts forever Don't have to You don't have to You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we could find comfort in debauchery You don't have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the local police, we could find- If you don't want to, you don't have to

Discovering this song after a few months of not listening is like magic all over again.

Favorite track off one of my favorite albums. Thanks for sharing :)

Hands down the best song on the album. The nostalgia feeling, the lyrics, the tunes- everything.

That last piano riff tho.... I'm lovin' it

Those vocal melodies are out of this world.

I love the way her voice breaks a bit at 3:20

Just fell in love with this song.

The old school tunes just speak to me man..wow those times of our lives are never coming back..good old days

This song basically sums up every relationship I've ever had. It really encompasses the sense of pleading for someone to refrain from abandoning you but not wanting to make them stay against their will on your account. I loved the whole album but this song holds a particularly special place in my heart. I love the melody and just all of it. :)

Arguably one of the best tracks from one of the best debuts albums of 2014!

I can listen to this whole album on repeat. 😍

I just discovered this song and I love it 😭😭😭

Why does this song makes me just sad? It's like I just feel regret not doing the things in my past, while I am just 19 years old. I feel my life will walkthrough so quickly and then I'll listen to this song and feel that I've been swallowed to a deep hole and all options left is just to lay down and give up.

Molly your voice is incredible

This is a great song.

Just discovered this song, love it. Love from Iceland :)

I hope they do some more somber/darker songs like this one on the next album

Listening to your music from Venezuela!! Keep going, Alvvays!! Amazing band with amazing songs!!

I've loved this song since 2014, but as time goes on it feels more and more like it was written to become an old memory

We all have someone on our mind when this song comes on

i'm so inlove with that haunting guitar rift transition from "forever" at 2:38

As this great song recedes into the past, the guitar riff alone ranks with the best

The more songs by this band I hear, the more I love them wow

I love this song morer each time I hear it...it brings back a mixture of the 70s, 80s and 90s nostalgia.. always make be feel happy and joyful...beautiful song. Thank you Alvays..

For me, this is happiness and sadness together in a song. Alvvways did an awesome job!

Walking through the trees, I never really know what’s on your mind Is it ever me, or just someone you’ve left behind? 街を歩いてる時、あなたが何を思うのか私には分からない 私だったことある？それとも昔の誰か？ Floating through a dream, I never could make out the words you said Sentences are bouncing back and forth inside my head 夢の中に浮かんでる時、あなたの言った言葉が私には分からない 文章が前へ後ろへ私の頭の中で弾んでる You don’t have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery どこにも行かなくていい、あなたはここに私と一緒にいていいよ パーティーを邪魔する警察は忘れて、遊びの中に心地よさを見つけようよ Fighting through the fog, I can’t believe it rained all summer long When every day’s a hurricane, you know there’s something wrong 霧の中で戦っている、夏中ずっと雨が降っていたなんて信じられない 毎日が台風だったら、何かが間違ってるって気付くよね I see you every day, it’s hard to figure out what happens next I cannot decipher conversation in your head あなたを毎日見る、次に何が起こるのか予想するのは難しい あなたの頭の中の会話は読み解けない You don’t have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we can find comfort in debauchery どこにも行かなくていい、あなたはここに私と一緒にいていいよ パーティーを邪魔する警察は忘れて、遊びの中に心地よさを見つけようよ You don’t have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the local police, we can find comfort in biology どこにも行かなくていい、あなたはここに私と一緒にいていいよ 地元の警察は忘れて、生物学に心地よさを見つけようよ We wrote our names on the overpass and I hope it lasts forever Don’t have to You don’t have to ２人でお互いの名前を陸橋に書いて、永遠に残ればいいなって思った そうじゃなくてもいい あなたはそうじゃなくてもいい You don’t have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the party police, we could find comfort in debauchery どこにも行かなくていい、ここに私と一緒にいていいよ パーティーを邪魔する警察は忘れて、遊びの中に心地よさを見つけようよ You don’t have to leave, you could just stay here with me Forget all the local police, we could find- どこにも行かなくていい、ここに私と一緒にいていいよ 地元の警察は忘れて、心地よさを見つけ… If you don’t want to, you don’t have to もし嫌なら、別にそうしなくてもいいよ

i fallin in love with the instrument

i hope there's Indonesia on your tour list 😘

Niceee..... at Corona Capital... ooohhhh yeeeeeahhhhh! i love that girl. Her voice is simply beauty

[Verse 1] Walking through the trees, I never really know what's on your mind Is it ever me, or just someone you've left behind?
