Ben Howard - Soldiers lyrics

rate me

Oh you watch me steady, you

Watch me with such a quiet sincerity

And you hold me heavy, you

Hold me like I was born to be held

And the light comes in here, yeah

Morning my dear, and the restlessness of arms

And we lie here longing now

Words were ours that we'll never be harmed

'Cause you are dear to me

Yeah you are dear

But if this goes wrong again, oh heaven forbid

If this was how it was meant to fall, no

If this goes wrong again

Will you pretend that you know, steady as the morning and just go

And just go

And just go

I made you breakfast, oh

Soldiers to guard and keep you company

When I'm goin' away again

All faces and falsities of new friends

Yeah there's fires here to burn, and

Timbers left to learn in this young heart

And honey please don't think I don't miss you, no

Don't think I don't think of you when we're apart

Because I do dear, I do

Yeah I do dear

But if this goes wrong again, oh heaven forbid

If this was how it was meant to fall, no

If this goes wrong again

Will you pretend that you know, steady as the morning and just go

And just go

And just go
