lyrics

SOMBRE
- Words by Ezra Hocquard

VERSE I

Won't you snap my heart
In two again.
It's keeping me sombre
Fighting with my friend

Miss behaviour's taught me
Oh just how I love.
Keep oh keep me girl -
For seven days I'll speak in tongues.

The lost attraction
For the lover once pursued
Is keeping me sombre
And now I'm crying like I'm you

No time under the sun
Her flame in solitude
Well if it's best to burn - it's best to burn
Then delve into her rule

CHORUS I

Lovers hugging for a breakthrough
Never making love like we do
March to my heart with your guard down
I wouldn't wanna pawn you.

VERSE II

At the waters edge I strum
Until the weather cools
I thought of you for what it's worth
I've paid my dues.

And I miss you keeping it simple
And somewhat beautiful.
Won't you snap my heart in two again
It's leaving me sombre
Enlighten me again...

CHORUS II

Lovers hugging for a breakthrough
Never making love like we do
March to my heart with your guard down
I wouldn't wanna pawn you

OUTRO

Everyday should be a day for waking
To a girl with a face like yours

Everyday should be a day for waking
To a girl with a mind and soul like yours

Everyday should be a day for waking
To a girl with a body like yours

Everyday should be a day for waking
To a girl with a face like yours.

The flame in me sombre.
