Elbow - Asleep In The Back Lyrics
Were you crushed?
Did I rush you?
All my time is yours
My twisted heart is yours
The faithless shit is yours
That only smother you for moments
'Til I fold them up and leave
All yours
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Show your scars
Not to rush you
The hieroglyphic hints
In all the toilet scrawl
Guilty little pins
In all the things I never talk about
Are spilling with the gin
Taste how tough you are
All yours
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Not to rush you

Elbow Asleep In The Back Comments
How have I never heard this before?
Love the song, love the mv 💃🏻
marc caro & jean-pierre jeunet me thinks, love it though : )
No dislikes? Perfect.
2 now - those darn haters
I'm mesmerized by this song and video. Incredible.
Wow, this is brilliant.
Just beautiful.
I so love this. Amazing!
All my time is yours! My twisted heart is yours!
Is it just me or does this video have a "Game of Thrones" title sequence vibe :)
This band is really starting to grow on me
Love the vertigo reference at the end.
Continuing my love affair with the UK; one of my ancestral homes.
CAn't stay grumpy all the time!
Grumpy cat, what the hell? :)
Sounds painful...
so calming and nice
This is one of the best but inexplicable music videos ever.
Fucking hell, Elbow, you get me every time.
Reminds me of my Freshman year in high school. It's good to listen to them again.
Mad Video, remids me of "Avenging Angles" by "Space". Never realised how far back their hits go.
no no no - that's precisely what being human is about!!!!!!!
They do. It's probably your computer or internet connection.
IT'S DIDDY DICK AND DIDDY DOM! :D
its called botting. wuite a few major corps do it to get on the front psge of youtube.
I'm just surprised there's actually a band out there called MEGADETH!!!! o.O
that's the best video i've seen for a music video yet,
@ubermaster94 no harm done. but wouldn't you say that both fit (if a little loosely) under the genre of rock? even if this is quite a bit lighter and more keys based.
@matthewgilpincom also you cant really compare nirvana and elbow. that would be like comparing mozart with elbow. you cant say which is better really since they belong to different genre's. didnt mean to come across as an arse in the previous comments. was pissed off when i clicked onto this.
@matthewgilpincom right then. you could have explained better that would reduce the rages that come your way.
@ubermaster94 No offence meant, I'm not a troll, just a humble nerdfighter. I'll admit that it was a little stupid, I just thought that insulting a band that was not the band that made the song above would go down well. although I do stick to my belief that Elbow is better than Nirvana... My apologies :)
@matthewgilpincom 1. whats nirvana got to do with this video. 2. why would you randomly comment on that. 3. im a nirvana fan as well as guns'n'roses, iron maiden, metallica, opeth, a7x, megadeth, the cure, oasis, pink floyd, seether, muse, coldplay and newton faulkner. 4.dont think you are safe from people trolling back because your on an un-related video. 5. people can have broader music tastes than a twig, un like you. if yor gonna troll do it on the video, dont be a pussy.
What time signature is this song
SCREW YOU NIRVANA!!!!
I miss you, i really do...rip <3
Can't believe this song is nearly 10 years old. Saw them at Glastonbury on the tv last night, Proper!
Elbow are the dogs bollox and from Bury , my hometown YESSSSSSS
great song, strangest and most fantastic video
ELBOW ROCKS
fell in love with elbow when i first heard this song in 2002 & they just keep getting better, carry on guys
@greenfairykstar awesome!
@geo123fob Saw them last night in Nottingham - totally amazing, wow guy can sing and they left such a warm feeling in such a huge arena.. :)
Elobow's great lost single?? Just been having a root around in the CD collection and pulled up the CD singles for this tune, which I'd pretty much forgotten about. Stunning.......
surreal song with surreal video to go with it
Worfol, don't go just yet, there is too much Elbow to enjoy. I would have Black and white though. says everything about life as a kid growing up. Shame it's over too soon.
I'm going to see Elbow in March!!!!!!! :D
@jolianthom
Nice one mate - good on yer, hope it was a moving and beautiful day....x
Im sick of seeing Eminems stupid negative frown beside beautiful, positive Elbow songs...
i had this played by a string quartet at my wedding three weeks ago it was this song that brought me to tears i love this band
i just love the chords for this. :)
adorable video and beautiful song
:)
i love this music video. both the song and video was captivating
