Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars (Glastonbury 2025)


One of my patients played this song today  as I was completing a nursing task at work
Like all songs that evoke memories, 
I was suddenly transported to 2007, and I was driving my very first Welsh terrier to the animal hospital near Chester
I knew Finlay was dying 
And those words 

 If I lay here
If I just lay hereWould you lie with me and just forget the world?”

Finlay Christmas 2005

Have never left me. They summed up our relationship perfectly
Man and dog
And 18 years later, I still am moved to tears by the words.

What song breaks your heart? 
Answers here please xxxx

    I always associate that snow patrol song with the loss of my first beautiful golden retriever Dylan - and like you I find it hard to listen to now - no matter how many further amazing animals who share my life and home since then . I love your blog John.
