Ben Howard - The Burren lyrics

Your carnation revolution was buried
In these rock pools and I’m grateful
And the sun looks like the afterlife
In a battlefield after the rainfall

We walked out on
Out on to the burren frothy from the wind
Full of yesteryear’s sorrow
Bad dreams within we were children again
We were chi-i-i-i-ildren again
Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh

And home hit me like blasted stone
Of rattlesnake unturned
Bloodline, can’t you see I am letting go
I'll take with me what you left unburned

We walked out on
Out onto the burren frothy from the wind
Full of yesteryear’s sorrow
Bad dreams within we were children again
We were chi-i-i-i-ildren again
Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh

Oh, I come here to borrow time
Oh, I come here to start a fire
Oh, I come here to borrow time
Oh, I come here to start a fire
Oh, I come here to borrow time
Oh, I come here to start a fire
