Keane - Bedshaped

Many's the time I ran with you down

The rainy roads of our old town

Many the lives we lived in each day

And buried altogether

Don't laugh at me

Don't look away

 

You'll follow me back

With the sun in your eyes

And on your own

Bedshaped

And legs of stone

You'll knock on my door

And up we'll go

In white light

I don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?

I know

 

I know you think I'm holding you down

And I've fallen by the wayside now

And I don't understand the same things as you

But I do

 

Don't laugh at me

Don't look away

 

You'll follow me back

With the sun in your eyes

And on your own

Bedshaped

And legs of stone

You'll knock on my door

And up we'll go

In white light

I don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?

I know

 

And up we'll go

In white light

I don't think so

But what do I know?

What do I know?

I know

“

[The song] is about feeling that you've been "left behind" by an old friend or lover, and about hoping that you'll be reunited one day so that you can live out the end of your lives together the way you started them (...) a hope that they'll eventually want to get away from the bright lights and come back home. it's a sad and angry song, but also full of hope. I think I'm right in saying that in hospital when someone is ill and has to spend a lot of time in bed they can become 'bedshaped'. It sounds a bit depressing (...) but in the context of the song I wanted to suggest old age and frailty(...)
