Mumford & Sons Ghosts That We Knew

AlphabetLyrics.com

You saw my pain washed out in the rain
Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault, no cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart.

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
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 to my recent disgrace
'cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our 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 we'll be alright.

But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals
But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals.

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 we'll be alright.

And the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life.
