Future Islands - Vireo's eye lyrics
Your rating:
A loose, and hazy time When you were not my clementine And I was not you're diamond's eye. Bereft, as daisies lie For our love was lost in style You were strong, I was a child. We, we're not kings here. We're not kings here. We're just strangers. ------------- And Love, has died in song Carried down by ancient tongues Ferried round the water's thrum And winds, along a line Along a whirl, a lonely girl To be, to see, to sweat, and bleed To fall, on your sword--on your sword On your word ------------- Be still, by my side For you are not my clementine And I am not your diamond's eye. To sleep! By right of you, I can't endure In light of things, I can't ignore In spite of all the roses thorns, and hopeless words We, we're not kings here We're not kings here We're just strangers And angels
