Description
A song that uses keyboards and synthesisers.
Additional information
Described by Bellamy as a "basic love song. I think there is hope in there, even though I'm dealing with generally dark subjects".
According to Howard, Endlessly was originally more of a rock song than its final incarnation. It apparently had a bluesy riff.[1]
Soprano singer Renee Fleming covered "Endlessly" on her 2010 album Dark Hope.
Live
Endlessly was held back from being performed until the end of the September 2003 promotional tour and debuted at the first gig of the European tour in October. Surprisingly, Endlessly was performed at every single date in 2003 after its first performance with the sole exception being a promotional gig. Because of this, the majority of audio recordings available from 2003 include Endlessly. 2003 footage was particularly rare and pro-shots were even fewer, meaning very little footage of Endlessly is available.
Lyrics
There's a part of me you'll never know
The only thing I'll never show
Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly Hopelessly I'll give you everything But I won't give you up I won't let you down And I won't leave you falling If the moment ever comes
It's plain to see it's trying to speak Cherished dreams forever asleep
Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly Hopelessly I'll give you everything But I won't give you up I won't let you down And I won't leave you falling If the moment ever comes
Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly Hopelessly I'll give you everything But I won't give you up I won't let you down And I won't leave you falling But the moment never comes
