the lumineers - gale song

the lumineers - don t wanna go

Just wake up, I shouted
There's some blood, around the-
Clean it up, it's okay
Go get help, it's okay
I'm too young and now it's,
It's gone numb around me
Ambulance in driveway
Speeding up the highway

Suits were made for men, not boys
And this faith that we fake is a choice

I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
If it means goodbye
And I don't wanna see
I don't wanna be there
If it's the last time

Hold my brother's hand
And I'm his mother standing
In a sudden panic
Like a drugless addict

It's too late, the moment
When it runs you over
No one's safe, I need her
No one say it's over

Suits were made for men, not boys
So leave me alone
And this faith that we fake is a choice
So take me (home)

I don't wanna go
And I don't wanna go
If it means goodbye
And I don't wanna go
I don't wanna see her
If it's the last time

the lumineers - darlene

I see you
Standing there
In your favorite dress
I like what you wear

Oh Darlene, oh Darlene

I give you my ring
In your shaking hands
You give me a sting
With your crazy plans

Oh Darlene, oh Darlene

the lumineers - ho hey

I've been trying to do it right
I've been living a lonely life
I've been sleepin here instead
I've been sleepin in my bed
Sleepin in my bed

So show me family
All the blood that I will bleed
I don't know where I belong
I don't know where I went wrong
But I can write a song

I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet heart
I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet

I don't think you're right for him
Think of what it might have been if we
Took a bus to chinatown
I'd be standin on canal and bowery
And she'd be standin next to me

I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet heart
I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet heart

Love we need it now
Let's hope for some
Cause oh, we're bleedin out

I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet heart
I belong with you, you belong with me
You're my sweet.

the lumineers - dead sea

I stood alone, upon the platform in vain
Puerto Ricans they were playing me salsa in the rain
With open doors and manual locks
In fast food parking lots

I headed West, I was a man on the move
New York had lied to me, I needed the truth
Oh, I need somebody, needed someone I could trust
I don't gamble, but if I did I would bet on us

Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, like the Dead Sea

Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
[Album version:] The nicest words you ever said to me
[Video version:] The finest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see,
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea

You told me you were good at running away
Domestic life, it never suited you like a suitcase
You left with just the clothes on your back
You took the rest when you took the map

Yes, there are times we live for somebody else
Your father died and you decided to live
It for yourself you felt, you just felt it was time
And I'm glad, cause you with cats, that's just not right

Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, I'm your Dead Sea

Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
The finest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see
I was born to be, be your dead sea

I've been down, I've been defeated
You're the message I was heeding
Would you stay,
Would you stay the night?

Dead Sea,
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
I never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, I'm your Dead Sea

Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
The finest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea

the lumineers - ophelia

Ah, ah, when I was young
I, I should've known better
And I can't feel no remorse
And you don't feel nothing back
I, I got a new girlfriend here
Feels like he's on top
And I don't feel no remorse
And you can't see past my blindness

Oh, Ophelia
You've been on my mind, girl, since the flood
Oh, Ophelia
Heaven help the fool who falls in love

I, I got a little paycheck
You got big plans and you gotta move
And I don't feel nothing at all
And you can't feel nothing small

Honey, I love you
That's all she wrote

Oh, Ophelia
You've been on my mind, girl, like a drug
Oh, Ophelia
Heaven help the fool who falls in love
Oh, Ophelia
You've been on my mind, girl, since the flood
Oh, Ophelia
Heaven help the fool who falls in love
Oh, Ophelia
You've been on my mind, girl, like a drug
Oh, Ophelia
Heaven help the fool who falls in love

the lumineers - elouise

If you're down on your luck, don't get down on yourself
It won't do you no good
'Cause I've been there before, fought a hundred wars
And I'm still fighting for you

Elouise, why'd you leave?
Please confess, confess to me.
Sing my song, patiently
And I'll return, my Elouise.

Let's be Alison,
Let's be David Burn
Let's all learn how to dance
Move your feet in time
Put your hand in mine
We will waltz once again.

Elouise, why'd you leave?
Please confess, confess to me.
Sing my song, patiently
And I'll return, my Elouise.

Elouise, why'd you leave?
Please confess, confess to me.
Song my song, graciously
We will waltz, Elouise.

the lumineers - charlie boy

Charlie boy, don't go to war, first born in forty - four
Kennedy made him believe we could do much more

Ohhh

Lillian, don't hang your head, love should make you feel good
In uniform you raised a man, who volunteered to stand

Ohhh

Play the bugle, play the taps and
Make your mothers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud

News was bad on upland ave., metuchen mourn our loss
Sons rebelled, while fathers yelled, and mothers clutched the cross

Ohhh

Play the bugle, play the taps and
Make your fathers proud
Raise your rifles to the sky boys
Fire that volley loud

the lumineers - big parade

Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see.
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see.

Fleet of black, fleet of black limousines
These tinted machines, here comes the cavalcade

With the armored cars, armored cars like berettas
Flags on antennaes designed to keep me safe, keep me safe

And oh my my oh hey hey
Here he comes, the candidate
Blue eyed boy, united states
Vote for him, the candidate

Diamonds cut, diamonds cut for the carrots
Plaster of paris, the floats fill up the street

And the beauty queens, beauty queens with the white gloves
All sick from the night clubs, they wave with pageantry, pageantry

Oh my my oh hey hey
Here it comes, the big parade
Marching bands and barricades
Make way, for the big parade

Canvas covered, canvas covered in resin
The violent men who dance the blood ballet
And the bookies say, bookies say it's the 3rd round
Oh when louie will go down, if he don't there's hell to pay, and hell to raise

And oh my my oh hey hey
Here he comes, the welterweight
Take a dive, for goodness sake
Or say goodbye to the welterweight

Catholic priest, catholic priest in a crisis
He's torn between romance and jesus, who will win the civil war

And he says I'm in love, I'm in love with a woman
Yea this is my confession, I'm leaving I can't a priest anymore, anymore

And oh my my oh hey hey
There he goes, the man of faith
Left the church for a fiance
Let him love, the man of faith

T.v. cameras, t.v. cameras and stage hands
American bandstand, electric guitars

And he's singin songs, singin songs for the lonely
All the girls with the room keys,
They know all his words by heart, by heart and they all sing

Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see

Lovely girl won't you stay, oh oh ohoh

Oh my my oh hey hey
Here she comes by saving grace
Burn the car and save the plates
She's arrived, my saving grace

the lumineers - classy girls

Well she was standing in the bar
I said, "Hello, how do you do?"
She handed me a beer with a kangaroo.

She spoke of places I had never been
That she had traveled to
And we slowed danced along to faster tunes

I made her laugh, I made a pass, I showed her my half dollar ring
She said, "That's pretty cool,
But classy girls don't kiss in bars, you fool"

So later on the crowd calmed down
And I believe it was as if
Something drew me closer to her lips

So picture my surprise when I had tried to lean in for a kiss
And she just smiled and turned her head down

I asked her, "Why?" and she replied,
"It was nothing I was doing nothing wrong, its just what it is"
Oh, classy girls don't kiss in bars like this

No, classy girls don't kiss in bars
Boys will break their backs and hearts
But its alright, the hardest part is through

the lumineers - flapper girl

[Verse 1]
Cut off all of your hair
Did you flinch, did you care
Did he look, did he stop and stare
At your brand new hair
Local boy, local news
Power lines hangin boots
Firemen in their trucks cut loose
A local boy's shoes

Cadillac, cadillac
Businessmen dressed in slacks

I'm gonna buy one for us when I get back
A big cadillac

[Bridge]
And you can wave to all of your friends
And I'll never leave you again

[Chorus]
Would you write would you call back baby if
I wrote you a song
I been gone but you're still my lady and
I need you at home

[Verse 2]
Romeo, juliet
Balcony in silhouette
Makin o's with her cigarette
It's juliet

Flapper girl, flapper girl
Prohibition in curls
Hair of gold and a neck of pearls
It's flapper girl

[Bridge]
And you can wave to all of your friends
And I'll never leave you again

[Chorus]
Would you write would you call back baby if
I wrote you a song
I been gone but you're still my lady and
I need you at home

[Bridge]
Cause if you ain't behind my door
Then I ain't got a home anymore

[Chorus]
Would you write would you call back baby if
I wrote you a song
I been gone but you're still my lady and
I need you at home

[Outro]
Lovers come, lovers go
Lovers leave me alone
She'll come back to me

the lumineers - falling

I love you
And everything about you
Won't you stay away
So I can get my work done
In the day, okay?
Well maybe in the meantime
You and me will be fine

If you just relax
And check your eyes for cataracts
It's plain to see
That I was meant for you
And you were meant for me
Darling hold me tightly
I think you and me, we might be

Falling, falling, falling, I'm falling in
Love, love

Drama queen
Like when you see a fire
You grab the gasoline
Now honey please calm down
Yes, just don't make a scene
They're asking us to leave now
And calling the police

Yes he's a manly man
Cause you're defending me
Just like a punching bag
But I can take a punch
If you can take a jab
You catch me when I fall
And dress your wounds with alcohol

I'm falling, falling
Falling, I'm falling in
Love, love

Falling, falling, falling, I'm falling in
Love, love

the lumineers - visions of china

Twisted side was
Female taxi drivers
Dirty fingers
Because this light of

And feels just one thing
You pretend to see
Suggest to keep looking

OOh
Aahh
Find a formule

OOh
Aahh
Find a formule

Count a bikes
But a price
Smoking inside

the lumineers - this must be the place

[Verse 1]
Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I go numb- born with a weak heart
Guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's alright I know nothing's wrong . . nothing wrong

[Verse 2]
Hi yo, I got plenty of time
Hi yo, you got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up and say goodnight . . . say goodnight

[Verse 3]
Home- is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home- she lifted up her wings
I guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from the other
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time before we were born
If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be

[Verse 4]
Hi yo, we drift in and out
Hi yo, sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head ah ooh

the lumineers - flowers in your hair

When we were younger we thought
Everyone was on our side
Then we grew a little bit
And romanticized the time I saw
Flowers in your hair
It takes a boy to live
It takes a man to pretend he was there

So then we grew a little and knew a lot
And how we demonstrated it to the cops
And all the things we said
We were self-assured

Cause it's a long road to wisdom
But it's a short one
To being ignored

Be in my eyes
Be in my heart
Be in my eyes, ai, yai, yai
And be in my heart

So now I think that I could
Love you back
And I hope it's not too late
'Cause you're attractive
And the way you move
I won't close my eyes
It takes a man to live
It takes a woman to make him compromise

Be in my eyes
Be in my heart
Be in my eyes ai yai yai
And be in my heart
