Beirut
Lyrics
We made our way down from Beirut
To tell you
The mountain's on the move
For sad men
Kids resist their sleepy eyes
In the carriage that they're in
The wiser king was asking for you
Where were you when the moon went missing
Who could tell you had a puzzle piece
In the corner of your lung
A picture by the tree your mum tends
Keeps me cool
I try to meet your eyes through
7 feet of solid ground
I confess
I haven't thought about you less
Not a day
Since you died
We made our way down from Beirut
To tell you
The mountain's on the move
For sad men
Kids resist their sleepy eyes
In the carriage that they're in
The wiser king was asking for you
Where were you when the moon went missing
Who could tell you had a puzzle piece
Left in the corner of your heart
Blessed king
Centrepiece at the fireworks show
Wondering when the fuse will blow
I could laugh in the face of the coroner
Messing with the one to dive alone
We made our way down from Beirut
To tell you
The mountain's on the move
For sad men
Kids resist their sleepy eyes
In the carriage that they're in
The wiser king was asking for you
Where were you when the moon went missing
