For You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you're lost and feel alone
Circumnavigate the globe
All you ever have to hope for too
And the way you seem to flow
Circumnavigate in hope
And they seem to lose control with you
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
Every one of us is hurt
And every one of us is scarred
Every one of us is scared, not you

[Verse 2]
When your eyes close
Your head hurts
Your eyes feel stoned
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
Every one of us is scared
Every one of us is hurt
Every one of us has hope for you

[Outro]
For you, for you
For you, for you
For you, for you
For you (For you)
For you, for you
(For you, for you)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

Originally on the Japanese version of Coldplay’s ‘debut’ album Parachutes, For You was released as a bonus track along with Careful Where You Stand. It is also one of the least known Coldplay songs. This spacey, slow and chilled out song is about friends and peers worrying about an individual. This track captures and foreshadows what the group would be doing in their 3rd studio album X & Y. Instead of the loud, raw alternative-pop sound Coldplay had from their beginning of their careers.
