Alt-J - Chicago lyrics
[Alt-J - Chicago lyrics]
More together than alone from the hill
We saw it rain on the town over
Torch to your chin lights your cheekbones
In that moment
I saw a likeness to our father
In American Night, on that hill in the night
Pulled back to the night before
When the TV lit our brilliant, smiling faces
Torch hit's your face before the fall
Panic in the eye is
Similar to breaking horses
An apparition lifts me up
An apparition lifts me up
From it's shoulders
I sit and see your face above the tree line
Your reassurances
Subtitled in American English
I am calm as we sail down the hillside
In American Night, on that hill in the night
We saw it rain on the town over
Torch to your chin lights your cheekbones
In that moment
I saw a likeness to our father
In American Night, on that hill in the night
Pulled back to the night before
When the TV lit our brilliant, smiling faces
Torch hit's your face before the fall
Panic in the eye is
Similar to breaking horses
An apparition lifts me up
An apparition lifts me up
From it's shoulders
I sit and see your face above the tree line
Your reassurances
Subtitled in American English
I am calm as we sail down the hillside
In American Night, on that hill in the night
