Coldplay is giving away a free download of their song Violet Hill for this week only. It’s pretty cool. At first listen it wasn’t my favorite but now I’m falling for it. Up there among my favorites (God Put A Smile & Rush of Blood).

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow

Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below

When the future’s architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You’d better lie low

If you love me
Won’t you let me know?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in armor
When I’m dead and hit the ground
My love’s like _____*
But I’m froze

If you love me
Won’t you let me know?

I don’t wanna be a soldier
the captain of some stinkin ship
would stow far below

So, If you love me
Why’d you let me go?

I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in the snow.
All that time she was silent still.

So, If you love me
Won’t you let me know?
So, If you love me
Won’t you let me know?

You can download a free copy at Coldplay.com/Song.html this week only. :) :)

*Can’t understand that word; anyone else catch what he said?
