Letra The Scientist

A música The Scientist do Coldplay foi escrita após o vocalista Chris Martin ter se inspirado a escrever uma canção simples na escala de Sol maior, seguindo o exemplo do hit de George Harrison, Isnt It a Pity. Durante o processo de composição, Martin queria uma música que fosse direta, que fosse sem conjecturas. A música descreve o desejo de reparar uma relação que deu errado.

 Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you,
Tell you I’ll set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and’ask me your questions
Oh, let’s go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails,
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard.
N.C.


I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard.
N.C.


Oooooooooooooooohh
Oooooooooooooooohh
