When you're stoned baby, and I am drunk
And we make love, it seems a little desolate
It's hard sometimes not to look away
And think what's the point
When I'm having to hold this fire down
I think I'll explode, if I can't feel this free now

If you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best thing
I would love to do for you
Instead you will be missing me when I go
'cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold

When I feel loved baby, I join the road
And the world moves with me
When I feel lost I just slip away
Silently, quietly take my things and go
And think what's the point
Think where's the hope we're coming home

If you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best that
I would love to do for you
Instead you will be missing me when I go
'cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold

If you find one day
Find some freedom and relief
And with this freedom maybe
Maybe you will find some peace
And with this peace baby
I hope it brings you back to me
Bring you home, take me home

If you won't let me fall for you
Then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you
Instead you will be missing me when I go
'cause I'm bored of hanging out in your cold

i had to take my headphones off for this one.

Well for cripes' sake, people... the song is named "Stoned," after all. #-o I, for one, love Dido's voice. If this is "euro-tripe," so be it. I find it smoothly pleasant. Less is more, sometimes.

Eyuh. This song is nice, but it's really bland. Inoffensive, sure, but there's nothing to really enjoy either. I guess the synth pads are nice.

Hey, let's go light on the euro-tripe. They live just across the Channel. We've been neighbors so long that I LIKE this song! Troubling. No...no...stay away. You can't make me eat that quiche!

within seconds of the start of this song, I tuned it out - no hooks at all, just the SAME OLD THING... and then several minutes later, I realized the song was still on. Think I missed anything important in the middle? Nah... - vacuous was the perfect description.
Vacuous?!? Hey, what about all that drum machine?!! :D

All of Dido's songs sound the same to me. Maybe it's the disaffected tone of her voice. Not bad, just not great or gripping.

Thought for a second that this was more new Bird York. Fine for me, because I find myself admiring similiar things. Dido hadn't really shown up on my screen yet, but this is great.
