Текст песни Strong Start - The Cranberries

I- I'm q-quite happy really,
'Cause linger was like our first ever song
Like three days after we met Dolores
W-we had the music for it, we just put it in tape and then three days after we met her she came back with the lyrics and that was the song
So that was our very first ever song so that's really nice
That's a compliment, that's really special for us
Before dolores joined the band
We, the 3 of us were just playing on our own
Well there used to be a guy singin' with us for a few weeks, just for a bit of experience
Y'know we did a gig or two with him
What it was and what we wanted so
Noel used to write bits and pieces of music on the guitar and bring them in to us and we'd start playing along
So we had loads of instrumental stuff
But we had no lyrics or um focus or anything
When Dolores joined we like put a few things in tape
And she went away and wrote the lyrics and the melodies and came back
And that was basically how we did it at the start
But now she writes some stuff as well on the guitar, and Noel as well so you got music coming from two sides
So it's great, there's more of a broader scope
I said that once we have it recorded
And we get an actual arc strengh to play it, so we got like an eight piece arc
It was nice, it was really nice, it was special
Yeah it's just it's because it's our first song it's kind of the one that's most special
I don't know, I don't think it's fair for me to say it
Because y'know I'm not the one who writes the lyrics and Dolores is and she doesn't really like talking about-
You known it's the same as a poet and writing a poem
He doesn't like explaining what it's about
It's up to the listener themselves to pick up on what it is about
So y'know I thinks it's better that way because if I said something it might change somebody else's view
And they might've said "Oh was that what it's about? I thought it was about something else"
So it's not fair really it's-
Let them decide themselves
I think it's something that people can relate to y'know
I mean it's a said song about lost love
Y'know that's basically an outline
A lot of people have been through that
So it's just basically who can relate to that
