Lyrics Island Lights - Birdy

Island Lights

Somehow, ooh, we have to make a start
Should make it back before the dark
Somehow, ooh, we have to go on apart
The island lights are turning on
We have to move forwards and fight our tears
We have to keep going or we’ll stay right here
We’ll be right here till the morning comes
We’ll be right here till the morning comes
You are my song and my silence, hmm
The only one I confide in, hmm
You were my sun and this winter never thaws
And nothing seems to grow here
Nothing seems to grow here anymore
Right now, ooh, standing the way we are
The island lights look just like stars
And someday, yeah, when someone else has your love
We won’t come here anymore
We have to move forwards and fight our tears
We have to keep going or we’ll stay right here
We’ll stay right here till the morning comes
We’ll be right here till the morning comes
You are my song and my silence, hmm
The only one I confide in, hmm
You were my sun and this winter never thaws
And nothing seems to grow here
Nothing seems to grow here
Blame it on those cold and lonely winter days
Blame it on the clouds for always bringing rain
Blame it on the sky for why I feel this way
It’s funny how the season never seems to change
But you are my song and my silence, hmm
The only one I confide in, hmm
You were my sun and this winter never thaws
And nothing seems to grow here anymore
Nothing seems to grow here anymore
