Standing by yourself
High on the hills above the ocean
This is where you’d come to walk with your friends
Strange how it leaves you with no emotion
You can’t fight the undertow
Not when you’re all alone
You can’t fight the undertow
How long 'til you let go?
Taking one step back
Trying to pull yourself together
No matter what you say nothing you do
Can hold back the forces on you forever
You can’t fight the undertow
Not when you’re all alone
You can’t fight the undertow
How long 'til you let go?
for me the scene is so perfect with the song and the clip... with the slow mo...
for me that's one of my fav scene ever ....
listening to the song now bring back memories of that time... :)
First time I heard this group, was about three or four years ago at a "Safeway" store in the San Jose area...they were playing Ivy's cover of "Only a Fool Would Say That"...:-) ..That memory sticks with me now every time I listen to them. Love this tune, too...
Hearing this is so sad with the passing of Adam Schlesinger. Always held out a faint hope that Ivy would tour one more time. Their shows were magical and timeless.
I never watched Roswell (or Grey's Anatomy or There's Something About Mary or Shallow Hal) in my life. I discovered Ivy a few years ago through a song called Edge Of The Ocean on a CD with various artists called Time to Chill: Lounge that I bought on a whim. I've since found 7 Ivy CD's with a total of 73 individual songs on them, 73 of which are good and 72 of those exceptionally good.
