Letra Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

La canción Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall de Coldplay se inspiró inicialmente en el sencillo de 1976 I Go to Rio de Peter Allen y Adrienne Anderson. Chris Martin se inspiró tras escuchar el ritmo de la canción en un festival, lo que lo llevó a escribir Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall. Es un tema que celebra el poder de la música para transformar el desánimo en esperanza y alegría.

I turn the music up, I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
Until Monday morning feels another life
I turn the music up
I'm on a roll this time
And heaven is in sight


I turn the music up, I got my records on
From underneath the rubble sing a rebel song
Don't want to see another generation drop
I'd rather be a comma than a full stop
Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees
Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart

And we saw oh this light I swear you, emerge blinking into
To tell me it's alright
As we soar wa----lls, every siren is a symphony
And every tear's a waterfall

Is a waterfall
Oh
Is a waterfall
Oh oh oh
Is a is a waterfall

So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But still I'll raise the flag

It was a wa wa wa wa wa-a-terfall
A wa wa wa wa wa-aterfall
Every tear
Every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear
Every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
