Catchy! The start sounded like a mix of Get Up and Writing To Reach You to me, but then it turned into something totally different :P

Very addictive, catchy and gets in your head very quickly. And then cant get it out.
Seems like perfect single material.
But there again i thought that when i first heard friends, so what do i know!

I had a go at trying to figure out the lyrics, this is what I can hear..

I
I
I have nothing to do
To do, to do, to do, to do
When I want to do it with you
With you, when no one else will be beside me
Oh we'll be asleep/sleeping, we'll dream a golden dream of green
And our, our love(?) is for losers
No one to fool cause you could(?) do without me

I really need a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
......return from your way(?)

I have nothing to say
To say, to say, to say, to say
And I try to say it with love
So you could say it back, our words(?) got crossed?
Split, broken into, your eyes are black, my hands are blue
And I, oh this is the part where we see clear
So we can never take it back(?)

I really need a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
.......return from your way(?)

What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?

Everyone needs a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
......return from your way(?)
From your way?
From your way?
From your way?

Please correct me!

Hey Alex, I think you're right about most of it.. :p

But I think the last part of the chorus sounds like "When I return, throw me away" but I'm not sure.

Yeah I think it's "When I return, throw me away" in all the chorus. Thank you, I really hear it now!

So updated lyrics, please help me figuring it all out!

I
I
I have nothing to do
To do, to do, to do, to do
When I want to do it with you
With you, when no one else will be beside me
Oh we'll be asleep/sleeping, we'll dream a golden dream of green
And oh, our(?) love is for losers
No one to fool cause you could(?) do without me

I think I need a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return, throw me away

I have nothing to say
To say, to say, to say, to say
And I try to say it with love
So you could say it back, our wires got crossed
Split, broken into, your eyes are black, my eyes are blue
And ah, oh this is the part where we see clear(?)
So we can never take it back(?)

I think I need a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return throw me away

What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?

Everyone needs a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return throw me away
Throw me away
Throw me away
Throw me away

Well done, Alex!

Besides the "throw me away" part, all I may add is that instead of "our words got crossed" I would say: "our wires" (?)
And I listen to "sing it back" where you wrote "say it back", but I'm not sure...

Also, instead of "I really need", doesn't he sing "I think I need a holiday" (?)

Yeah I thought there was a "wi"-sound at the our .... got crossed - part, but couldn't figure out the correct word, but I will listen to it again now..

I'll listen to the other parts that you mentioned there as well! It's a bit hard to hear every word from this recording :P

I can really hear the "wires"-thing now, I'll change that part =)

And I hear "I think I need a holiday" too...will change that line as well...

Maybe it is "sing" instead of "say", I'll let that open for now :P

Hey Alex, Just listened to it now (nice lttle tune)and this is what I hear but that could be my hearing;0) Just copied and pasted your work thanks :0)

I
I
I have nothing to do
To do, to do, to do, to do
And I want to do it with you
With you, when no one else will be beside me
Oh it will be sweet, we'll dream of gold we'll dream of green
And oh, oh love is for losers
Dont be fooled cause you can do without me

I think we need a holiday
A little time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return, throw me away

I have nothing to say
To say, to say, to say, to say
And I try to say it with love
So you could say it back, our wires got crossed
Split, broken in two, your eyes are black, my eyes are blue
And ah, oh this is the part where we say things that we can never take back

I think we need a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return throw me away

What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?

Everyone needs a holiday
Another time and another place
To disappear without a trace
When I return throw me away
Throw me away
Throw me away

Nikki you are such a weak minded individual. ; )

A few nights ago I had a dream that I came on the messageboard and there was an announcement that they were canceling the rest of the tour because they were going on holiday to Israel. I think it was a combo of this song and Fran's story about writing Rain on Me in Israel. LOL
