Murmurations

I asked my neighbor what time is it Time you know you can't get it back What's a man anyhow If not alone collecting facts Well I am loved through sickness Today I am courage at the track It's so peaceful here No one to fuck it up I could lay here for hours and hours Not asking for much Married to the sunshine in my mind I was floating away (after the longest day) I can see all the flowers in full bloom I wish I could last and stay The whole world living in the darkest hour I am the fortress in Nazaré Above the raging sound Somebody came by to say hi And we washed the day down Missed the end of the world And that was just fine Saw my family for the holidays and we had a good time I am the gentle day's end, after all that noise I am the bull that stood and stared after the cavalry arrived I am the perfume memory Sweetness in her smile I could lay here for hours I could lay here for a while I asked my neighbour what time is it Time you know you can't get it back Why are we all so miserable? Oh, that's right, nobody ever comes back Well, I am loved through sickness Today I am courage at the track I'm the hand that feeds you I'm the hallowed road back home Whole world living in the darkest hour Whole world living in the darkest hour It's so peaceful here, no one to fuck it up I could see through miles, miles --- Murmurations - Ben Howard
