[SuperLovelessgirl]

This whole song hits me in the feels, but the line "I'm really not supposed to, but yes you can call me anything you want." really makes me cry because he finally found someone who was willing to help him through his pain.

[Bluebird-tjkb]

I love that you can interpret this song as a simple breakup song, or a song about a dead lover.

[TheCruist]

Tell me where's you hiding place. I'm worried I'll forget your face.... I love that part.

[paulinapb]

AM lyrics have always been amazing. The band has changed so much over years but they are so incredible when it comes to words! Alex has this great ability to sing 6 words when you think only 4 would fit. Their songs are like poems. And this is my favourite one.

[katsaw.]

this is such an amazing song idk if i should cry or smile

[thecomebackguy]

I'm beginning to think, i imagined you all along.

[erenslostarm]

I feel like I can hear the lyrics maturing and growing up as the years go by with this band, it's a fascinating thing to observe.

[beerios]

Does no one get that the girl he's singing about is dead
"close enough to be your GHOST"
"where's your hiding place, " like her ashes, or her body, is somewhere but he doesn't know where
" I'm worried I'll forget your face, " cause he's never gonna see her again
" I thought she might understand, " the sister is probably feeling the same emotions 'cause she's going through the same loss
" I'm really not supposed to, " the sister feels like she's slightly betraying her but doesn't really care

[guneumbird]

Only a true poet fits the word “elongated” into a song’s chorus ❤

[sofiaelizabeth]

This song reminds me my mother. I miss her so much and I see her in many people. I’m just crying

[yippyhippy]

Lol I used to always think it was "kept my chocolates to myself" ;D

[thenewglory]

I literally can feel the words on my skin

[yasmineelkhalifi]

Just watched them live yesterday. This song hit differently. So here I am trying to live that experience in my head again.

[gracepayneee]

in my humble opinion, this this their best song

[TheCabIsHeresOhYeah]

im absolutely in love with alex turner

[AndreaS-ruyw]

The lyrics are so specific, when i listen to this song i always listen to the lyrics carefully and they have such a beautiful meaning🌻

[manmorales]

This band changed my life, more specifically their first album. I love all their music it’s so damn good 🦅

[carlygetter]

this song breaks my heart every time i hear it

[ameliarinabyhuerta]

I cry every night to this song. I'll never fall in love again.

[kuroro]
