Singer: Capital Cities

    I could lift you up

    I could show you what you want to see

    And take you where you want to be

    You could be my luck

    Even if the sky is falling down

    I know that we’ll be safe and sound

    ...

    I could fill your cup

    You know my river won’t evaporate

    This world we still appreciate

    You could be my luck

    Even in a hurricane of frowns

    I know that we’ll be safe and sound

    I could show you love

    In a tidal wave of mystery

    You’ll still be standing next to me

    You could be my luck

    Even if we’re six feet underground

    I know that we’ll be safe and sound

    ...

    Background

    This is a song by American indie rock duo Capital Cities. It was released as a digital download in the United States in 2011 and was released in Germany on April 5 this year. It was used in a German Vodafone commercial and has peaked at No. 1 on the German Singles Chart.

    It is a heart-warming song because of the simple lyrics that make people yearn for young love. The poppy synth beats make people bob their heads and dance. The fantastically placed trumpet in the background is just terrific.
