London Grammar - I Need The Night

 

There is a voice it is chastising me
I was so cold, what had become of me
Take all your limbs and wrap them 'round your neck
So they all laugh at your predicament

All of the boys and girls
All people in this world
Give me a dream and I will give you my word

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

There is a whisper that our God is a she
She sits on high over the land and the sea
Her breast is heavy in a brand new world
Tell your grandmother and your boys and your girls
She's got a brand new favourite
Tell all the shrinks and haters
Give her a dream and she will give you her word

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

When I realised that I never loved them
That the ones before just held me down and caused me problems
It's in the way you see me, the way you hold me high
Tell me that you love me, longest days turn coldest nights

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends 

 

London Grammar - Into Gold

 

Dear heart, dear soul
Old friend, don't let me go
I am the fire and you are water
Drown me out, but I learnt
So if you see me, cross the street
But I still see you in people I meet
And I am the fire and you are water
You drown me out, but I learnt, I got older, found out I ought to

Make ashes from stone
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
And when I was made from the right kind of wrong
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold

River run red, river run dry
River run red and white
I am the fire and you are water
Drown me out, but I learned
So if you see me, cross the street
But I still see you in people I meet
I am the fire and you are water
You ran me wild to the sea
There you'll find me
Trying to catch me

Make ashes from stone
All of these things that I've seen turned darkness into gold
And when I was made from the right kind of wrong
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold

All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold 

 

London Grammar - Heat Waves (Glass Animals cover)

 

Last night, all I think about is you
Don't stop, baby, you can walk through
Don't want, baby, think about you
You know that I'm never gonna lose

Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a—

Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now

Usually I put somethin' on TV
So we never think about you and me
But today I see our reflections clearly
In Hollywood, layin' on the screen
You just need a better life than this
You need somethin' I can never give
Fake water all across the road
It's gone now, the night has come, but

Sometimes all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now

You can't fight it, you can't breathe
You say somethin' so lovin', but
Now I gotta let you go
You'll be better off in someone new
I don't wanna be alone
You know it hurts me too
You look so broken when you cry
One more and then I'll say goodbye

Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now

I just wonder what you're dreamin' of
When you sleep and smile so comfortable
I just wish that I could give you that
That look that's perfectly un-sad
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Heat waves been fakin' me out

Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now
Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June
Heat waves been fakin' me out
Can't make you happier now

Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror
Road shimmer wigglin' the vision
Heat, heat waves, I'm swimmin' in a mirror

And I'm so damn caught in the middle
I've excused you for a while

And a lion, a lion roars would you not listen?
If a child, a child cries would you not forgive them?

I have a feeling deep down
You're caught in the middle?

London Grammar - Nightcall

 

I’m giving you a nightcall to tell you how I feel
I’m gonna drive you through the night down the hills
I’m gonna tell you something you don’t want to hear
I’m gonna show you where it’s dumped but have no fear

There’s something inside you
It's hard to explain
There’s something inside you, boy
And you’re still the same

I’m giving you a nightcall to tell you how I feel

It's hard to explain
They’re talking about you, boy
But you’re still the same

Tell you how,
