Ben Howard - In Dreams lyrics
[Ben Howard - In Dreams lyrics]
Always a riddle in the world she said
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing of wonder
The way we come to be
Oh it's a big old place for me
Yeah it's a big old world indeed
Everyone is killing me
And everything conspires
In dreams I have watched it spin
Seen the violent crack of atoms
Where all light comes in
In dreams I have lain in sin
Just to be the cracked and the cared for
How can I ask, ask for more?
Always a riddle in the world she said
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing of wonder
The way we come to be
Oh it's a big old place for me
Yeah it's a big old world indeed
Been kicking my heels and wondering how
I've been here so long
In dreams I have watched it spin
See a violent crack of atoms
Where all light comes in
In dreams I saw Aesop's kin
Just a carcass of a man
Now alone inside his skin
Where to, where to begin?
I live alone
I live a lonely life without you
And I may be troubled
But, I'm gracious in defeat
And I may be troubled
But, I'm gracious in defeat
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing of wonder
The way we come to be
Oh it's a big old place for me
Yeah it's a big old world indeed
Everyone is killing me
And everything conspires
In dreams I have watched it spin
Seen the violent crack of atoms
Where all light comes in
In dreams I have lain in sin
Just to be the cracked and the cared for
How can I ask, ask for more?
Always a riddle in the world she said
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing of wonder
The way we come to be
Oh it's a big old place for me
Yeah it's a big old world indeed
Been kicking my heels and wondering how
I've been here so long
In dreams I have watched it spin
See a violent crack of atoms
Where all light comes in
In dreams I saw Aesop's kin
Just a carcass of a man
Now alone inside his skin
Where to, where to begin?
I live alone
I live a lonely life without you
And I may be troubled
But, I'm gracious in defeat
And I may be troubled
But, I'm gracious in defeat
