One spur in the fire, burning
now we're clearing the embers away
there are many ways this way
so I tell you like you're meant to
and you're quick to guess my choice
was it my trembling hand or my voice?
she said you're stirring
tossing, turning
just like you were in the night
I am sure your choice is right
I've always been a coward
been a coward to this day
there are many ways this way
and your fortune taken from you
by men that always say
there are many ways this way
Dust On The Ground Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club
It's that ancient love
That you won't outgrow
It's the fee you pay
It's the debt you owe
It's that subtle way
That you throw me down
And I'm inches above
The dust on the ground
I await your call
I await your crown
Let's change our roads
And chase them all around
It's a subtle way
That you throw me down
And I'm inches above
The dust on the ground
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
It's that ancient love
That just moves along
There's an itch so slight
Even when you're gone
Well I met you right
But I kept you wrong
And I must wait until I've found the ground
That you are walking on
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
That you won't outgrow
It's the fee you pay
It's the debt you owe
It's that subtle way
That you throw me down
And I'm inches above
The dust on the ground
I await your call
I await your crown
Let's change our roads
And chase them all around
It's a subtle way
That you throw me down
And I'm inches above
The dust on the ground
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
It's that ancient love
That just moves along
There's an itch so slight
Even when you're gone
Well I met you right
But I kept you wrong
And I must wait until I've found the ground
That you are walking on
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
No I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
Ivy & Gold Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club
Waking, sitting up right
Can't explain the sunlight
Wondering why you're not home
The lighter beside you, left
Before you tried to work out all the unknowns
Blame it all on me when I forget to defend
Everything that we worked out
Something in her wording
I cannot help searching for what memory found
Thought it stopped just as its start
But that is not what you are
You're a layer on my clothes made of ivy and gold
Meet me in the hallway
Bite your lip when I say: "Never have you left my mind"
Stop and think it over, smiling, moving closer
Oh, what a delicate time
Blame it all on me when I forget to defend
Everything that we put down
Something in her wording
I guess she was just searching for some knowledge or sound
Thought it stopped just as its start
But that is not what you are
You're a layer on my clothes made of ivy and gold
Can't explain the sunlight
Wondering why you're not home
The lighter beside you, left
Before you tried to work out all the unknowns
Blame it all on me when I forget to defend
Everything that we worked out
Something in her wording
I cannot help searching for what memory found
Thought it stopped just as its start
But that is not what you are
You're a layer on my clothes made of ivy and gold
Meet me in the hallway
Bite your lip when I say: "Never have you left my mind"
Stop and think it over, smiling, moving closer
Oh, what a delicate time
Blame it all on me when I forget to defend
Everything that we put down
Something in her wording
I guess she was just searching for some knowledge or sound
Thought it stopped just as its start
But that is not what you are
You're a layer on my clothes made of ivy and gold
Leaving Blues Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club
Now your back's to the road
The waiting's everything you know
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
Riding home everyday
Sure in a cinematic way
Breathing the smoke of the train
Keep the thought of you aflame
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
Curse God for my regret
I miss you indefinite
Not once did I think that
Love would stay til I come back
Now your back's to the road
The waiting's everything you know
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
The waiting's everything you know
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
Riding home everyday
Sure in a cinematic way
Breathing the smoke of the train
Keep the thought of you aflame
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
Curse God for my regret
I miss you indefinite
Not once did I think that
Love would stay til I come back
Now your back's to the road
The waiting's everything you know
I'm sure you know that I'm leaving
Fairytale Lullaby Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club (originally by John Martyn)
If you want ride a rainbow come with me
I will take you in a magic purple
Maybe we will find a thousand sugar fish
And when you eat them they will grant your every wish
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
If you want to catch a star then walk my way
I will take you where the night is always day
You can follow me if you really try
Maybe we will find a rainbow, teach it to fly
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
Bow your head and let your eyelids close on down
Where we're going you won't need to bring your frown
You will find that all the things that I have said
Will come true when you are lying in your bed
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
I will take you in a magic purple
Maybe we will find a thousand sugar fish
And when you eat them they will grant your every wish
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
If you want to catch a star then walk my way
I will take you where the night is always day
You can follow me if you really try
Maybe we will find a rainbow, teach it to fly
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
Bow your head and let your eyelids close on down
Where we're going you won't need to bring your frown
You will find that all the things that I have said
Will come true when you are lying in your bed
And if you want your friends to come then bring them all along
Word By Word Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club
All of the voices
Spelling it out
Where are the plans you're thinking about
Rest him assured
It comes overnight
Writing it down and tearing it up
If I could tell you
Gradually
Word by word, you'd take it from me
It would be over
Instantly
Landing us where you thought we would be
Spelling it out
Where are the plans you're thinking about
Rest him assured
It comes overnight
Writing it down and tearing it up
If I could tell you
Gradually
Word by word, you'd take it from me
It would be over
Instantly
Landing us where you thought we would be
My God Lyrics – Bombay Bicycle Club
All the highs are downwards
All your fumble words are spent
Paying no attention
To the thoughts of your dear friend
No point louder
The sound of my power
Sink in deeper
Further each hour
My God
When our flower's fading
When our stem begins to fold
I will take off quietly
Like a bird that flees the cold
No point louder
The sound of my power
Sink in deeper
Further each hour
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
All your fumble words are spent
Paying no attention
To the thoughts of your dear friend
No point louder
The sound of my power
Sink in deeper
Further each hour
My God
When our flower's fading
When our stem begins to fold
I will take off quietly
Like a bird that flees the cold
No point louder
The sound of my power
Sink in deeper
Further each hour
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
My God
