Bastille - Laughter Lines lyrics

You took me to your favourite place on Earth
To see the tree they cut down
Ten years from your birth

Our fingers traced in circles
Round it's history
We brushed our hands right back in time
Through centuries

As you held me down you said:

"I'll see you in the future when we're older
And we are full of stories to be told

Crossing my heart and hope to die
I'll see you with your laughter lines"

Changes on our hands
And on our faces, oh, oh
Memories are mapped out
By the lines we'll trace

As you held me down you said:

"I'll see you in the future when we're older
And we are full of stories to be told

Crossing my heart and hope to die
I'll see you with your laughter lines"

Ashen faces in cold breeze
Ashen faces in cold breeze
Armed with stories, you will leave, oh oh
Armed with stories, you will leave

"I'll see you in the future when we're older
And we are full of stories to be told

Crossing my heart and hope to die
I'll see you with your laughter lines"

I'll see you in the future when we're old
I'll see you in the future when we're old
