White flag - Dido

15 november 2018

Toen ik doorkreeg dat het dan toch echt tot een live ontmoeting gaat komen dwaalden de gedachten automatisch af naar het voorjaar van 2006. De dvd, de 1e kennismaking, de (naar later bleek onuitwisbare) indruk, de stem. Vraag me niet waar het 'm in zit, het is er gewoon. Diep. Vanavond maar weer eens gaan kijken.

And when we meet which I'm sure we will

all that was there will be there still

Dido

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
or tell you that
but if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
and I won't put my hands up and surrender
there will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
and I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
and if you live by the rules of it's over
then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
and I won't put my hands up and surrender
there will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet which I'm sure we will
all that was there will be there still
I'll let it pass and hold my tongue
and you will think that I've moved on

I will go down with this ship
and I won't put my hands up and surrender
there will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
and I won't put my hands up and surrender
there will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
and I won't put my hands up and surrender
there will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
