Young Veins, The - Cape Town Lyrics






Took you in the vineyard
A couple hours after I met you
Didn't need my passport
Said I'd let you keep it forever

I hardly knew a thing about you
I got lost in Cape Town
In Cape Town

I saw you
I met you
I loved you
I left you in Cape Town

Woke me in the morning
Asked me if I meant it, I didn't
Asked to be her husband
She already had one in prison

I hardly knew a thing about you
I got lost in Cape Town
In Cape Town

I saw you
I met you
I loved you
I left you in Cape Town
In Cape Town

Ran all out of paper
Lost it all in pontoon
When I was in Asia
I forgot how to call you

Went out to a graveyard
To bum a couple of flowers
To give to you
When I got back to Cape Town

(I saw you)
(I met you) To Cape Town
(I loved you)
(I left you) To Cape Town
(I saw you)
(I met you)
(I loved you)
(I left you) To Cape Town
(I saw you)
(I met you) To Cape Town
(I loved you) To Cape Town
(I saw you)
(I met you) To Cape Town
(I loved you)
(I left)

  30. d.... s....

    panic! fandom: omg, v&v has the most obvious songs when it comes to ryden!

    young veins: hold my beer

  31. K.... T....

    WHAT HAPPENED IN CAPE TOWN HUH RYAN HUH

  32. m.... d....

    alright ya fucking cheese whiz dipshits, here's the truth on cape town:
    *Jon himself stated that Ryan accidentally fell in love with a girl in capet own, at the concert he threw his passport into the audience stating that he "Never wanted to leave". This song isn't about ryden purely, it's about Ryan falling for someone else. Not to mention the lyric "I hardly knew a thing about you.", he'd been in a band with Brendon for years when they performed in cape town. You could argue that it's simply for lyrical illusion but why in the hell would he do that if the whole song was supposed to be about brendon?? So basically this isn't the ryden song of the century and even i, a ryden shipper, know better than to trust one of the lyricists rather than my own little head.*

    m.... d....

    also if it were for brendon don't yall think it would be hurtful to leave constant fucking comments about it???

    m.... d....

    Preach 👏🏻👏🏻

  33. G.... R....

    ten years ago.
    ten.
    ouch.

  34. l.... i....

  35. Y.... A....

    Ten year anniversary of capetown

  36. W.... ....

    cada 13 de abril entro a este video :'(

  37. R.... G....

    I’m pretty sure today marks 10 years since the show in Cape Town. The place where Ryan left his soul.

    R.... G....

    Or I have big stupid and I was early

  38. l.... n....

    *brendon has left the chat*

  39. N.... W....

    Gabee u told me to listen to this I love you

  40. B.... A....

    *cries in Northern Downpour*

  41. A.... n....

    🌾💞

  42. w.... t....

    2019: still feeling the northern downpour.

  43. h.... ....

    This makes me emo

  44. e.... ....

    What happens in Cape Town? (Insert Lenny face here)

  45. b.... t....

    Ryan's voice is so soothing and I just wanna cuddle him

  46. I.... L....

    GODAMMIT I’m from Cape Town (Ryan why)

  47. w.... i....

    ok, hi, fellow ryden trash here. i just thought to point out how fucked up it is that the last show they ever played was the day after Brendon’s birthday, but now that i think about it, it doesn’t sound that important. sorry, it’s late, and im typing this through the northern downpour from my eyes.

  48. n.... u....

    WHY DO PEOPLE THINK THIS IS ABOUT BRENDON??

    n.... u....

    where do i begin-

    n.... u....

    @Salvatore right???

    n.... u....

    @Salvatore please do explain

    n.... u....

    @no u this may get messy but ill try.

    Okay so ryan and brendon both had nicknames. Ryan was the Sun and Brendon was the Moon.
    As you know, in *many* of their songs (especially pretty odd) they have lyrics that use the Sun and Moon to represent people falling in love woth each other. (theres a yt video that has some examples that i could link) and the question is;
    Why the hell use your and your best friends nickname to represent people falling in love if you arent dating?
    As you also know; Northern Downpour-most notorious Ryden song.
    It was said that the song was about things that meant alot to them. (ryan wrote this song.) There is the lyric "Hey Moon please forget to fall down, Hey moon dont you go down."
    People see Northern Downpour as a promise (i think) and since ryan left its like a broken promise. The reason people think this is brendon cries whenevee he sings this song on stage.

    OKAY LMAO NOW FOR THIS SONG
    The last show panic! played together-as a whole-was in Cape Town South Africa.
    yeah.
    I see itt as this:
    Why write a song called Cape Town talking about a lover, saying "i saw you i met you i loved you i left you in Cape Town" like the only thing that he left was brendon and panic!
    Ryan has other songs too that support this.


    Okay that was hella messy but i could link a video better explaining it. because i think i missed a few things but thats just a brief explanation.

    n.... u....

    @Salvatore thank you!! i do have a better understanding but I still don't rlly think this is abt brendon. partly bc some of the lyrics don't match up to him and other things but, seeing the other songs with this one i can see why people do now.

  49. a.... ....

    ive been so distracted with other fandoms that i momentarily forgot about p!atd and stuff. i was looking back on a fan fiction i used to love and one of the lines reminded me of this song. it feels so fuckin nostalgic haha

  50. B.... B....

    My theory is Brendon had been in love with Ryan, and Ryan flew to Seattle to be with him. In Cape Town Ryan and Brendon hooked up, but Ryan either didn’t feel the same way Brendon did or he was too scared to admit he had feelings for Brendon, eventually leading them to the split. Now in Brendon’s stream where he addressed Ryden, “Is Ryden real, if you’re talking about if me and Ryan were ever in a relationship, no, we were friends” and you could hear the salt in Brendon’s voice, because he wanted to be with Ryan but Ryan has told him that they will never be more than friends. Okay thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

  51. M.... P....
