Paul McCartney - Confidante Lyrics
You used to be my confidante
My underneath the staircase friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought
In your reflected glory I
Could dream of shining far off lands
Where serpents turn to bits of string
And played like kittens in my hand
In our imaginary world
And stomp around the forest chanting
Long lost anthems
Long lost anthems
You used to be my confidante
My underneath the staircase friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
I played with you throughout the day
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought
You stood beside me as I fought
You used to be my confidante

Paul McCartney Confidante Comments
So it i s not Paul... god...
Paul McCartney - Confidant cool song
I love Paul McCartney's music and story more than words can describe, I have for years. My mind likes to play tricks on me sometimes, though, so I asked myself-when this album came out "do I love it JUST because it has the McCartney name on it?" So I put my favorite of these songs on a playlist, this one included, and deliberately waited about a year to hear the album in its entirety again. After my second full listen I would have no problem showing someone who had never heard a single note of solo Paul McCartney music this album alongside Band on the Run. The lyrics are really strong, the themes of love and loss and wistfulness move me to tears at least twice every listen, the production is insane. If you had told someone in 1970 that folks in 2020 would be saying "I genuinely can't wait to see what Paul McCartney does next" I wonder if they'd believe it. I certainly do!
Dear Paul. Thanks for all your songs. I am grateful for every sound and
for every word you gave me. I really love you and will remember you all
my life.
Dear Paul. Thanks for all your songs. I am grateful for every sound and
for every word you gave me. I really love you and will remember you all
my life.
Paul you are very hoarse! We love you but stop touring! Save your sweet voice! With love from a fan ... The song is beautiful...
♡♡♡
This is such a breakup song
You used to be my confidante
My underneath's darkest friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
I played with you throughout the day
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought
In your reflected glory eye
Could dream of shining far off lands
Would serpents turn to bits of string
And play like kittens in my hand
In our imaginary world
Would butterflies wear army boots
And stomp around the forests
Chanting long lost anthems
Long lost anthems
You used to be my confidante
My underneath's darkest friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
I played with you throughout the day
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought
You stood beside me as I fought
You used to be my confidante

Plagiarism... Sorry Paul you stole this. Better make it right

Jurica Pađen & Aerodrom - Izbrisani grafiti is an album made in 1997 in Croatia. Switch on link above on 41:54
Music is universal language. And this link above is prove. Thank you Jurica, thank you Sir Paul! <3
Nice song. We have similar song in Croatia from year 1997., by singer Jurica Padzen.
Go to 41:52 https://youtu.be/wYbXryfjUrc
Original song Jurica Pađen-Samo me draga ne ostavi
How can he continue to be so original for so long? To me McCartney and Dylan are verified artists. Where is Jagger? Plant? Clapton? Elton? Collins? Sting? Springsteen?
My favorite album since 1980
Call me crazy, but for me his voice here sounds similar to Roger Waters during Amused to Death era
I'll do it again.
You Get that on the Big Jobs Paul.
You gettyhat on the big jobs paul.
DESCUBRIENDO CADA VEZ MAS ESTE ALBUM...... CONFIDANTE MARAVILLOSA...DE LAS MEJORES!!!!!
Anyone else notice that Paul's kind of sounding like Christopher Walken here?
Flip It And Kiss It
This is beautiful and heart wrenching and it makes me want to hug him
I Can't live without his songs..
Au cas où 1⃣ français 🇫🇷 passait par là : vous pouvez signer une pétition contre l'expérimentation animale sur le site 30 🐭 🐁 🐍🐺🐦🐟🐎🐾
I have an addiction to this song
This reminds me of one of George Harrison's songs from Living in the Material World and I'm trying to remember the name of it.
Be still my heart 💖
Swoon 😍
He's ridiculously talented! The rarest of beings ✨
Die BRD IST EINE LÜGE!!!
Eigentlich nicht
Demokratie ist cool
His voice become raspier and it sounds grrreat
Nice. Cool cover too, I suppose including another clue or two for y'all..? ;)
hes still a genius...
😍💕✨

Love this one Paul! A new fave!
Reminds me of Book Of Love
You're my confident ! YEAHhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Me enamoré de él como la primera vez que lo escuché, siempre me pasa.
if he wasn't Paul McCartney no one would be listening to this junk
Please.... give this man all the awards
Time passes and changes us, and Sir Paul Mc Cartney is still the same, dynamic, fresh, providing us with great music entertainment. Such music is always listened to with great pleasure.
FANTASTICO,GRACIAS PAUL , TE ESTIMAMOS MUCHO COMO A LOS BEATLES SALUDOS PACO
Easily the best song on this album.
Paul still has some good melodies up his sleeve.
love it...
I love that beetle
sounds like old johnny cash
I've written a lot of songs(all unpublished) but honestly, Paul writes great lyrics. He's so good at everything else people seem to overlook it.
weird flex but ok
Thank Heavens Macca is still making quality music today in the 21st Century, when the world of
pop/rock music sucks beyond belief.
Is this another song for John? It seems to be to me. So many of his songs are.
A sublime song with beautiful lyrics. However, could somebody please help me fully understand what Paul means with 'confidante' ? Does he means a trustee ? or what English people call it as 'my touchstone' ? Or does he talks about an ex-partner, ex-friend, ex-wife .. who was somebody he was so close with that he said her/him everything, even his deepest thoughts ?. ?
I think I got it ! :-) :-) he sings about his Guitar ?!?!
Beautiful song
The guitar looks like "Friends To Go"
XTC stole from Paul,, I wish Paul would steel from xtc
So 69, you don't agree that the music now churned out by Macartney, Elton or anyone else from their generation is now crap? Compare their material when they were hot to what they do now. Not just have the voices gone , the creativity one dimensional but the quality of the recordings, production, is weak too. if you like all that then it says more about your judgement than it does about their product. Don't pretend it's good because of the names. The brutal truth is that's it's very , very average to poor.
For those who claim certain songs were a message to John, I don't know. But this one seems to have a message for sure.
Paul I have been a fan since I was 6 years old (that was in 1970). I have loved all your music from the Beatles through Wings through to now. Saw you at Suncorp this year and it was the best consert I have ever seen.
This is exactly how I feel about my former best friend
nice album art and nice song. is that a dung beatle?? lol sht.....lol beautiful song thanks for the music its conforting and inspiring. a few years ago I found a pamphlet in my backyard field one day that had the poem sand and stone on it with a radio signal tower similar to that on the beatle. cool eh?
Most likely a scarab beetle - It's Egypt after all - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarab_(artifact)
This fits on Disney Pixar Film Coco!
Feels like it could be about Linda.
One of my fave track. Fuh You, Despite Repeated Warnings ahhhhhh! I LOVE THEM ALL
Geez, is this McCartneys yoko tribute album?
Someone, needs to be honest! Paul , this album sucks. Give me a ring. I'll Help you with your next one.
♡♡♡
🦋👢💕💕💕
What an acoustic solo! <3
Thank you Paul for this ❤
Parece que estou ouvindo os Beatles de novo!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Is this about John?
💕🌹thank you
The best one
reminds me of johnny cash . i love it
Cant get this song out of my head today. it's like a long lost anthem. 😉
This one strikes me as having slight Johnny Cash overtones or influence.
Listen to that on a pair of good good speakers.
They whole albums sounds unbelievable. They should do a surround.
Jesus! I'm on cloud nine, Paul! We'll never fall out of love with you! ;)
Can you imagine this with a tug of war era vocal. Still good. Nonetheless
glendale6 🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏That’s what I’ve been thinking all the way through!
What is it with the likes of Macartney and Elton john? To be so brilliant once and now so shit! Sorry guys but you clearly don't have enough self awareness or the people you work with don't have the bollocks to speak up and say ' come on guys, get a grip!'
You, Sir, are a fool. You have no idea what the hell you are talking about.
keep on trolling fella...lol
Long live to Sir Paul.
la voix est de temps en temps limite mais qui aurais cru que le chanteur de liverpool
enchanterai toujours apres love me do 55 ans apres .
CONTINU TANT QUE TU PEUT NOUS EPATER
Eric je compléterais en disant chapeau bas sir McCartney ! toujours l'envie de nous enchanter à 74 ans respect😁👍
Kedves Paul McCartney úr! Magyarul írok ide, amit nem ért, deha angolul írnék, azt sem érthetné, mert szörnyű az angoltudásom.
Azért írok önnek, mert az énekkönyvemben olyan új információt tudhattam meg, hogy létezik olyan Beatles szám, aminek a címe az, hogy Goodbye. Ez tényleg így van, vagy a tankönyvírók tényleg nem tudják miről beszélnek? (A Rolling Stoneshoz pedig azt írták, hogy hallgassuk meg az I Can't Get No című számot, amit én eddig valahogy nem így ismertem.. gondolom ez az én hibám, megyek és átgondolom az életem)
Amúgy kedves Paul McCartney úr, jó lett ez a szám, meg az album is!
So sad. I know how that feels. You can only hope to try, I guess. Joni Mitchell is ringing in my ears, right now, as I look at the clouds! ;)
Paul is the LEGEND! ❤🎸
Inventively descriptive lyrics with touching melodic tonality and beautiful guitar timbre. A captivating composition, where the most genial of insects flutter gently, but possess some stomping military clout😀 Paul is rich with his colourful imagination here - great work from a long time creator of music that will endure the test of time!
Волшебно!!!!!!!!!!!
Great! The same level like 40 years ago!
Just Perfect
fantastic melody.😎
Respect Paul ✌️
Bou jouloud and love.. We chant till we cry and fall down laugh and lie down in love.. Forever.. Tina
From Liverpool to Blackpool lights to the pyramids of the Africa's I love you girl forever... Tina I mean ya x
i'm sry folks, the beatles are my all time band, love wings but this isn't good, boring and hears my ears. paul best music is when he was with a band and the last good album was back to the egg, tug a war was he best solo, but anything after that I have trouble listening too. as a solo artist he is just ok. McCartney needs a Lennon, Harrison or a Laine.
Great new album Paul, must be as good as any of the recent run of albums back to Chaos that had play back at Cavern
Mi favorita sin duda !!!
WOW! Paul always amazes me..brilliant
lovely song. simplicity itself
