Somewhere Only We Know (3:57)
From Hopes and Fears and 87 other releases
Contrary to popular belief, this song is most likely not about lovers. Tim Rice-Oxley has said that the ‘somewhere only we know’ can be a great variety of things, and when writing the song, left it to be ambiguous, though he has thought of it as a sort of escape, such as a good memory or a favorite place.
Rice-Oxley told The Daily Mirror “It’s about being able to draw strength from a place or experience you’ve shared with someone. I think its an idea a lot of people can relate to.” (Source Somewhere Only We Know Songfacts).
This song was used in the motion picture He’s Just Not That Into You.

Keane – Somewhere Only We Know
Send ‘Somewhere Only We Know’ Ringtone to Cell
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
