Mumford & Sons – GHOSTS THAT WE KNEW lyrics

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
