Lyrics Mumford & Sons

Mumford & Sons

Lovers' Eyes

1. Love was kind, for a time

Now just aches, and it makes me blind

This mirrors holds my eyes too bright

That I can't see the others in my life

2. We too young and heads too strong

To bear the weight of these lover's eyes

Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue

Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

R: But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage

Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead

Should you shake my ash to the wind

Lord forget all of my sins

Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes

3. Cuz there's no drink or drug I've tried

To rid the curse of these lover's eyes

And I feel numb beneath your tongue

Your strength just makes me feel less strong

R: But do not ask the price I pay...

*: But I walk slow, I walk slow

Take my hand, help me on my way.

(2x)

*: But I walk slow... (2x)
