Ruins I Songtext
von Birdy

Sweet surrender comes
After the dawn
We knew it was over long before
Don′t look over your shoulder as you go

Dreams we made like grains of sand
You built me up to tear me down
Awakenin' on broken ground
Don′t look back for me, can't save you now

It's a cold, cold life
We′ll never be the same again
I was blind
Now I′m seein' through it

It′s a cold, cold life
You'll never see me again
You and I
Will lie in ruins


Wavin′ you white flags through the smoke
You tell me you want me, I know you don't
Leave it behind, give up the ghost
Don′t look over your shoulder as you go

So how long have you known?
When you were beside me, was I alone?
So how long have you known?
How I see you now, it's cold

It's a cold, cold life
We′ll never be the same again
I was blind
Now I′m seein' through it

It′s a cold, cold life
You'll never see me again
You and I
Will lie in ruins

Ruins, ruins
Ruins, we′ll never be the same again
Ruins, ruins
Ruins, we'll never be the same again


Ruins, ruins
Ruins, we′ll never the same again
You and I
Will lie in ruins
