Echoes De Luxe So Long lyrics

So here we are, and here I am
In the light of all that's everything
I suddenly remember that I have lost it all
That simple thing that kept me here
It's nowhere to be found

Love is such a game
You're up one day in certainty that things in life come easily
Then oh, you almost slip
Like kings and queens in dying days and those who choose to remain
Just don't leave me here
And let your eyes go dark
Don't let your heartbeat still
And don't let the rest of us
Be the death of us
I want you madly

Had it all but I wanted more
Took a chance on a bigger score
And let you down
Cheap shots were the start of the war, dirty sheets in the corridor
I let you down


When love turns to rust only you will fail
And when you hide from your heart
Will you break down the walls
Or break down when the feelings start to rise

So I left behind them, silent and alone
And swore I'd never return again
From the last temptations of our fragile, dying age
To the warm embrace of a lover's open arms
I have never lost my way

So when you hide from your heart only you will fall
And when you hide from your heart only you will fail
Had it all but I wanted more
Took a chance on a bigger score
And let you down
Cheap shots were the start of the war
And dirty sheets in the corridor
I let you down
