As I watched the Netflix series "Beef," I grew to love this song by Keane, "Somewhere Only We Know," even more. It was played at the end of Episode 8 during that moment wherein one of the main characters, Danny, was finally able to keep his promise to his parents to bring them back to America. When I looked it up I did not realize it’s a 2004 hit as I thought It was released around 2010 ish. An amazing friend here on Hive, @anna-newkey, had covered this last month here at Hive Open Mic too and she did mention me having a go at it after commenting I love the song. I find mine slow though and I should have done it a bit faster but my fingers are sore already as I had a bit of a struggle with transitioning to the Bm chord. I had to practice numerous times and that’s the best I have. I think. 😅
I chose this song because it reminds me of how much I enjoy being in nature and how I often fantasize about having a private hideaway. An enchanted river and forest where you may simply enjoy life without worrying about anything. Wishful huh?! But yeah, every time I hear this lovely song, that is exactly how I feel.
Lyrics
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm gettin' old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm gettin' tired, and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm gettin' old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm gettin' tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go?
So, why don't we go?
Ooh, hey, hey
Oh-oh-oh
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
