Bastille - Durban Skies lyrics

All that I've got to be thankful for
All that I've got to be thankful for
In the heat, try to love these streets

In this town, it all went down
Our chromosomes in sepia tones in my mind
In my mind where you led your lives before
From our small island, brought right back
To these shores, to these shores
To these shores

It’s alive, it’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, it’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city I
See it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban skies

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
All that I've got to be thankful for

On the day you made your vows
The heavens opened, rain poured down
It poured down, down, down
Grey and brown, the seventies
The suit's you wore, and the ones you loved
Were so young, were so young
Lord, you were so young

It’s alive, it’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, it’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city I
See it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban skies

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
All that I've got to be thankful for
Oh, all that I've got to be thankful for
All that I've got to be thankful for

It’s alive, it’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, it’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city I
See it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban skies

When you take me there there
When you take me there there
When you take me there
It’s alive, it’s alive
When you take me there
It's alive, it's alive
