Lyrics
0:35Was a long and dark December
0:38From the rooftops I remember
0:41There was snow white snow
0:48Clearly I remember
0:51From the windows they were watching
0:54While we froze down below
1:01When the future's architectured
1:04By a carnival of idiots on show
1:09You'd better lie low
1:13If you love me won't you let me know?
1:24Was a long and dark December
1:27When the banks became cathedrals
1:30And a fox became God
1:37Priests clutched onto bibles
1:40Hollowed out to fit their rifles
1:43And a cross was held aloft
1:50Bury me in armour
1:52When I'm dead and hit the ground
1:55My nerves are poles that unfroze
2:01And if you love me won't you let me know?
2:38I don't wanna be a soldier
2:41Who the captain of some sinking ship
2:45Would stow far below
2:50So if you love me why'd you let me go?
3:03I took my love down to Violet Hill
3:09There we sat in snow
3:14All that time she was silent still
3:19Said if you love me won't you let me know?
3:27If you love me won't you let me know?
Was a long and dark December From the rooftops I remember There was snow white snow Clearly I remember From the windows they were watching While we froze down below When the future's architectured By a carnival of idiots on show You'd better lie low If you love me won't you let me know? Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals And a fox became God Priests clutched onto bibles Hollowed out to fit their rifles And a cross was held aloft Bury me in armour When I'm dead and hit the ground My nerves are poles that unfroze And if you love me won't you let me know? I don't wanna be a soldier Who the captain of some sinking ship Would stow far below So if you love me why'd you let me go? I took my love down to Violet Hill There we sat in snow All that time she was silent still Said if you love me won't you let me know? If you love me won't you let me know?
