Ghosts That We Knew - Mumford & Sons

You saw my pain, washed out in the rain

And 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

And we’ll live a long life

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

Cause oh they gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like (with all of my might)

Just promise me we’ll be all right

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 they gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like (with all of my might)

Just promise me we’ll be all right

But hold me still

Bury my heart on the coals (next to yours)

And hold me still

Bury my heart next to yours (on the coals)

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

Cause oh they gave me such a fright

But I will hold with all of my might (as long as you like)

Just promise me we’ll be all right

Ghosts that we knew made us black and all blue

But we’ll live a long life

And the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view

And we’ll live a long life
