Lyrics The Civil Wars

The Civil Wars

C'est la mort

Swan dive down eleven stories high

Hold your breath until you see the light

You can sink to the bottom of the sea

Just don't go without me

Go get lost where no one can be found

Drink so long and deep until you drown

Say your goodbyes but darlin' if you please,

Don't go without me.

C'est la vie, C'est la mort.

(Such is life, such is death.)

You and me,

Forevermore.

Let's walk down the road that has no end

Steal away where only angels tread

Heaven or hell or somewhere in between

Cross your heart to take me when you leave

Don't go

Please don't go

Don't go without me
