Mumford & Sons - Ghosts That We Knew lyrics

rate me

You saw my pain, washed out in the rain

Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins

But you saw no fault no crack in my heart

And you kneel beside my hope torn apart

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from you

And we'll live a long life

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light

Cause oh that gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like

Just promise me we'll be alright

So lead me back

Turn south from that place

And close my eyes from my recent disgrace

Cause you know my call

We'll share my all

Now children come and they will hear me roar

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light

Cause oh that gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like

Just promise me that we'll be alright

But hold me still bury my heart on the cold

And hold me still bury my heart on the cold

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light

Cause oh that gave me such a fright

But I will hold on as long as you like

Just promise me that we'll be alright

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from you

And we'll live a long life
