well i did a search and it came up empty...where's all the love for the brilliance that is hail, hail??? my gawd i have always loved this song. quite a rocker yet filled with such amazing words and emotions...........
Is there room enough for both of us?
Both of us apart?
Are we bound out of obligation?
Is that all we've got?
Get the words, and then I get to thinkin'
I don't wanna think, I wanna feel
How do I feel?
How do I?...
If you're the only one, will I never be enough?
Hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
Swore I'd love you till the day I die, ah and beyond...
Are we going to the same place? If so, can I come?
It's egg rolling thick and heavy
All the past you carry
Oh, I could be new... you underestimate me
If you're the only one, will I never be enough?
Hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love
Sometimes realize, I could only be as good as you'll let me
Are you woman enough to be my man?
Bandaged hand in hand
I find it on the run in a race that can't be won
All hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love, yeah
If you're my only one, so could you only one?
I want to be your one, enough...
Your one...your one...your one...

Stay with me...

I never really got into it until i heard it on Live on two legs, and then i saw it on Letterman, and then i listened to the words, and when all those 3 things combined i was blown away. I love this song, the lyrics are great- so simple, so meaningful and so honest.Situations get fucked up and turned around sooner or later...0

I adore this song, especially live.If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

NO, NO, NO...
It's all the past WE carry. I don't understand how theskyIscrape can have this fundamental so wrong. Check the polaroids... It's WE.
Makes much more sense, really
. At least for my interpretation of the song 
Love song of married people about my age
It's egg rolling thick and heavy, all the past WE carry, but I could be new... don't underestimate me
There is another lyric that everyone gets wrong, including silly Eddie Vedder...
In Breath... it's not "If I knew where it was", but "If I knew where I was, I would take you there... there's so much more (of me
) than this... so much more than this..."
Oh well... they'll all get it eventually
... and the will to show I will always be better than before.0 -
already fixed m'dear....mea culpa meme.

just a quick *bump* for a song dear to my heart, and heavily in my mind's sountrack lately......Stay with me...
