Lyrics What The Moon Does - Ben Howard

What The Moon Does

Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Speak it simple, make me smile
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek
Am I making history?
Am I working out?
Only what the moon does to the devout
And I may be floating through memory
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn’t we dream big
Once or twice
And that’s just fine
Oh, Anne-Marie
Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Speak it simple, make me smile
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek
And I may be floating through memories
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn’t we dream big
Once or twice
Threw a ribbon at the night
Broke a candle, bathed in light
While all around us
Real life flashed at the window
Oh, oh
You didn’t
You didn’t have to tell me
I knew it always
You didn’t
You didn’t have to tell me
I knew it always
Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Most things now make me smile
Am I making history?
Am I working out?
Only what the moon does to the devout
