Lyrics

[00:14.390] I was on the back of a nightingale, living like a king
[00:26.680] Listening to the songs that you’d sing.
[00:44.630] Home fires were burning and the smoke stung our eyes
[00:50.060] We were blind from birth, until that night.
[01:19.100] Love grows old and we die younger each time.
[01:43.730] Heaven loves a martyr,
[01:50.500] And how am I supposed to run with my legs sunk in the mud?
[02:04.590] I wish I had grown up a little longer,
[02:18.270] And if we’d flown south, we’d have a home at least for now
[02:32.900] Love grows old and I lived like a king
