Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
You hold your truth so purely
Swerve not through the minds of men
The lie, it is dead
And this cup of yours tastes holy
But you know I was not that man
It's not my land
And my heart
Was colder when you'd gone
I lost my head
But found the one that I loved
It's not what I do that makes me
In my weakness I grew strong
Held my tongue
And I've learned from errors made early
A brush with the devil can clear your mind
And strengthen your spine
But fingers tap into what you were once
And I'm worried that I blew my only chance
Whispers in the dark
Steal a kiss and you'll break a heart
Pick up your clothes and curl your toes
Learn your lesson, lead me home
Spare my sins for the ark
I was to slow to depart
I'm a cad but I'm not aflawed
I set out to serve the Lord.
But my heart
Was colder when you'd gone
I lost my head
But found the one that I loved
Under the sun
Under the sun
And fingers tap into what you were once
And I'm worried that I blew my only chance
Fingers tap into what you were once
And I'm worried that I blew my only chance
But my heart
Was colder when you'd gone
I lost my head
But still, while we are young
While we are young
While we are young
While we are young
Although Marcus Mumford has denied this song is a statement of his Christian faith, the Sons are most certainly undergoing an ecclesiastical-flecked existential crisis of sorts. Still, driven by Winston Marshall’s powerhouse banjo, we are spared of what could have been an overly self-indulgent slog.
