We’ve all been struck speechless at times, not being able to put into words what is happening in our minds and hearts. This tends to happen when we’re in love, when bursts of emotions cloud our thoughts and we can’t think of anything but the object of our affection. Then, out of nowhere, you hear the song that perfectly describes all you’re feeling. It’s as if they wrote the words and music just for you. Every lyric seems to say all you’ve been dying to tell the one who owns your heart.
Coldplay is the British band that since the year 2000 has captivated millions of people with their seven studio albums. Their emotionally-charged songs and melodies delve right into all we experience when we’re in the throes of love, both when we’re surrendering to euphoria and when we suffer. Because isn’t that what love is? A constant push and pull between two people that can have infinite possible results, the most common being extreme happiness or the inevitable goodbye.
But for now, let’s focus on the present joy we feel next to the person we love. So today we bring you the seven best lines from Coldplay you can dedicate to your partner when you feel bursting with feelings but out of words.
“I call it magic when I’m with you”
Most of us have had moments when regardless of the time or place, all that matters is that we’re next to the one person that makes us feel like anything is possible.
“You’re a sky full of stars”
How many times have we looked up to the sky and thought of someone? Likely it’s been more than once. We see the stars shine bright, and it’s at that very moment when everything takes on a special light. No matter what happens in the future, we know that there will always be someone who will guide us when the path gets dark and scary.
“Been around the world looking for someone like you”
Sometimes we spend too much time searching for someone with very specific traits. We look and look but don’t glance around at what is happening around us. We ignore landscapes, moments, even people, but every now and then, if we pause for a bit, we can allow something or someone to find us and show us that they were worth the wait.
“I’m never so high as when I’m with you”
Some people make us lose any notion of time; their very presence makes us forget all our troubles, for they are souls that can comfort us with a simple hug and make us feel we’re walking on air. These are the people we need in our lives, the ones that support and motivate us to be better every time.

“Look at the stars, look how they shine for you and everything you do”
Is there someone on Earth who’s never heard “Yellow”? It’s basically Coldplay’s most famous song and the perfect tune to dedicate to that someone you admire in every way, that human full of qualities you love, that helps you become a better person, and inspires you to be better.
“You use your heart as a weapon and it hurts like heaven”
Love isn’t all hearts and kisses. Relationships encounter hard times that we need to face straight on. Sometimes our partner will say something that will hurt us, making us think it’s over. But if both parties communicate and find a way to endure the battle, their bond will only grow stronger.
“If you love me, why’d you let me go?”
There is nothing more painful than having to leave someone because the timing just isn’t right. The feelings are there, but life has a way of springing surprises on us that change all we thought we knew. We can make every effort to make it work but sometimes, no matter how much we try, it doesn’t work out. There are loves that are out of time, but we should not lose hope. We can only believe that fate will do its part.
These are just some lines Coldplay has given us throughout their 16 years of stardom. Their songs have been there for each and every one of us, holding our hands when we’ve been in need.
