The Oh Hellos - In Memoriam lyrics
[The Oh Hellos - In Memoriam lyrics]
Well, it's a long way out to reach the sea
But I'm sure I'll find you
Waiting there for me
And by the time I blink
I'll see your wild arms swinging
Just to meet me in the middle of the road
And you'll hold me like you'll
Never let me go and beside the salty water
I could hold you close
But you are far too beautiful to love me
But it's a long climb up the dusty mountain
To build a turret tall enough to keep you out
But when you wage your wars against
The one who adores you
Then you'll never know the
Treasure that you're worth
But I've never been a wealthy one before
I've got holes in my pockets
Burned by liars' gold
And I think I'm far too poor
For you to want me
It's been a long road, losing all I've owned
You don't know what you've
Got until you're gone
It's a nasty habit, spending all you have
But if you're doing all the leaving
Then it's never your love lost
If you leave before the start
Then there was never love at all
Heaven knows I'm prone to leave the
Only God I should have loved
Yet you're far too beautiful to leave me
But I'm sure I'll find you
Waiting there for me
And by the time I blink
I'll see your wild arms swinging
Just to meet me in the middle of the road
And you'll hold me like you'll
Never let me go and beside the salty water
I could hold you close
But you are far too beautiful to love me
But it's a long climb up the dusty mountain
To build a turret tall enough to keep you out
But when you wage your wars against
The one who adores you
Then you'll never know the
Treasure that you're worth
But I've never been a wealthy one before
I've got holes in my pockets
Burned by liars' gold
And I think I'm far too poor
For you to want me
It's been a long road, losing all I've owned
You don't know what you've
Got until you're gone
It's a nasty habit, spending all you have
But if you're doing all the leaving
Then it's never your love lost
If you leave before the start
Then there was never love at all
Heaven knows I'm prone to leave the
Only God I should have loved
Yet you're far too beautiful to leave me
