Mumford & Sons - Hold On to What You Believe lyrics

rate me

I

I can't promise you that I won't let you down

And I

I can't promise you that I will be the only one around

When your hope falls down

But we're young

Open flowers in the windy fields of this war-torn world

And love

This city breathes the plague of loving things more than their creators

I ran away

I could not take the burden of both me and you

It was too fast

Casting love on me as if it were a spell I could not break

When it was a promise I could not make

But what if I was wrong?

But hold on to what you believe in the light

When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

And now this land

Means less and less to me without you breathing through its trees

At every turn

The water runs away from me and the halo disappears

And the hole when you're not near

So what if I was wrong?

But hold on to what you believe in the light

When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

So hold on to what you believed in the light
