Dermot Kennedy: Lost

When everything was broken,
The devil hit his second stride
But you remember what I told you
Someday I’ll need your spine to hide behind

for fear of moments stolen
I don’t wanna say goodnight
but I’ll still see you in the morning
still know your hreart
and still know both your eyes

I could have tild you about the long nights
how no one loves the birds that don’t rise
so you can tell the heroes go hide
my sense of wonder’s just a little tired

if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine
and I know you’d never leave me behind
but I am lost this time
are we destined to burn
or will we last the nght?
if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine

so we’ll run into open
keep your hand inside of mine
and then when everything is over
I hope to think of this as better times

the sky got red and swollen
I guess I never see the signs
there can’t be songs for every soldier
it can’t be solace every time you cry

I could have told you about the long nights
how no one loves the birds that don’t rise
so you can tell the heroes go hide
my sense of wonder’s just a little tired

if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine
and I know you’d never leave me behind
but I am lost this time
are we destined to burn
or will we last the night?
if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine

I was lost ‘till I found you
now these songs will hold ad hide your name
all it was, was all about you
since that night the moon has never seemed the same

if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine
and I know you’d never leave me behind
but I am lost this time
are we destined to burn
or will we last the night?
if only you could see yourself in my eyes
you’d see you shone, you shine
