i've listed to these songs like million times!!! It's 2020, they released other songs already and yet I'm still listening to this Royal Albert Concert! Wishing I will get the chance to see her live!
And the heart is hard to translate It has a language of its own It talks in tongues and quiet sighs, And prayers and proclamations In the grand days of great men and the smallest of gestures And short shallow gasps But with all my education I can’t seem to command it And the words are all escaping, and coming back all damaged And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how I can’t seem to understand it And I would give all this and heaven too I would give it all if only for a moment That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see ‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all And it talks to me in tiptoes And it sings to me inside It cries out in the darkest night and breaks in the morning light But with all my education I can’t seem to command it And the words are all escaping, and coming back all damaged And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how I can’t seem to understand it And I would give all this and heaven too I would give it all if only for a moment That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see ‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all And I would give all this and heaven too I would give it all if only for a moment That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see ‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all No, words are a language It doesn’t deserve such treatment And all of my stumbling phrases never amounted to anything worth this feeling All this heaven never could describe such a feeling as I'm hearing Words were never so useful So I was screaming out a language that I never knew existed before
As much as this song is about her family, when I first heard it the first thing I thought of was communication in general, and how language is so limiting that we can never hope to communicate anything properly with it. On the flip side, I also read it as praising language too, and how it can describe things beautifully (that line towards the end I always heard as "No words, POOR language, it doesn't deserve such treatment." Maybe those aren't the correct lyrics but that's what I hear and it gives the song an entirely new (but not necessarily different) meaning, I think.

She speaks so softly but then she opens her mouth to sing and this storm comes bringing it all down
This is one of the best songs ever and i’ll never shut up about it
A swiftie too..Good taste!!!
I agree.. is like having a brain orgasm!!
you're right not to shut up about it!
I'm in love with this song, in love with the lyrics, in love with her.

It's quite a magnificent rendition of the tune.
We w
Same! Love florence and this concert. I seen her live and she is amazing
She makes these dodges in the first part and then she belts it like lion and it makes me cry.
She's not a human. That was angelic.. majestic.. out of this heartless world.
And the heart is hard to translate
It has a language of its own
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs,
And prayers and proclamations
In the grand days of great men and the smallest of gestures
And short shallow gasps
But with all my education I can’t seem to command it
And the words are all escaping, and coming back all damaged
And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how
I can’t seem to understand it
And I would give all this and heaven too
I would give it all if only for a moment
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see
‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all
And it talks to me in tiptoes
And it sings to me inside
It cries out in the darkest night and breaks in the morning light
But with all my education I can’t seem to command it
And the words are all escaping, and coming back all damaged
And I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how
I can’t seem to understand it
And I would give all this and heaven too
I would give it all if only for a moment
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see
‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all
And I would give all this and heaven too
I would give it all if only for a moment
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see
‘Cause I’ve been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all
No, words are a language
It doesn’t deserve such treatment
And all of my stumbling phrases never amounted to anything worth this feeling
All this heaven never could describe such a feeling as I'm hearing
Words were never so useful
So I was screaming out a language that I never knew existed before
Thanks indeed
Thank you good friend
I was there that night, I remember it with a heart full of love.
This is the best performance of all this and heaven too, it is incredible. She does transport you to another state of mind!

I didn't know this one was about her family! I thought the same as you!
I always interpreted the song as how "love" speaks in a language of it's own. How it is difficult to understand and communicate with
Happy Birthday Florence 🌹
this song won’t stop giving me goosebumps. one of my favs fr.
Flo you are the reason those kids loveya❤
listen to this song 6 years ago and instantly became my favorite. Now it still is my favorite...
I'm always in tears listening and watching this. Something very beautiful about her.
She is so divine! I've loved Florence since day one!
One of the best songs ever written and performed in the 21st century 💯🔥❤️
I would give all of this and heaven too- just to see her live!
A beautiful young woman-age 25 here-w/ an amazing voice and stage presence.
she amazes me with her voice and words. a true talent! I am glad I stumbled across this concert!
If only they'd upload these to spotify omg.....
Encontré este video anoche y no puedo dejar de repetirlo una y otra vez. Hermosa interpretación.
Best song/performance ever...
this is my favorite, its gotten me through so much
This is amazing - she is etherial. I was going to suggest she does a Bond film but she is far too good for that. Lovely person.
I love this softer version of the song, it’s SO beautiful 🥺
I love this song, and this performance in particular is simply magical 💚
She is Angel.
❤️🥺 Florence is a angel
this is so beautiful. I love when the live is better❤❤❤
high art
And the heart is hard to translate
It has a language of it's own
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs
And prayers and proclamations in the grand days
Of great men and the smallest of gestures
In short shallow gasps
But with all my education
I can't seem to commend it
And the words are all escaping me
And coming back all damaged
And I would put them back in poetry
If I only knew how, I can't seem to understand it
And I would give all this and heaven too
I would give it all if only for a moment
That I could just understand
The meaning of the word you see
'Cause I've been scrawling it forever
But it never makes sense to me at all
And it talks to me in tiptoes
And sings to me inside
It cries out in the darkest night
And breaks in the morning light

No, words are a language
It doesn't deserve such treatment
And all my stumbling phrases
Never amounted to anything worth this feeling
All this heaven never could describe
Such a feeling as I'm healing, words were never so useful
So I was screaming out a language
That I never knew existed before
I am just so in love with this song and this lady !
it's just astonishing
Truly awesome.
absolutely beautiful, the best, love you Florence!
I think its the moust special song ever created.
This video introduced you to me. The song shall remain forever my favorite xoxo
