As It Was

As It Was - Hozier

Lyrics by：A. Hozier-Byrne

Composed by：A. Hozier-Byrne

There is a roadway muddy and foxgloved

Never I'd had life enough

My heart is screaming out

And in a few days I would be there love

Ever here that's lived in me is yours just as it was

Just as it was baby

Before the otherness came

And I knew it's name

The love the dark the light the flame

The eyes at the heights of my baby

Let's hope at the fight of my baby

The lights were as bright as my baby

But your love was unmoved

And tell me if somehow some of it remained

How long you would wait for me

How long I've been away

The shape that I'm in now is shaping the doorway

Make your good love known to me

Just tell me about your day

Just as it was baby

Before the otherness came

And I knew it's name

The drugs the dark the light the shame

Eyes at the hights of my baby

And this hope at the fight of my baby

And the lights were as bright as my baby

But your love was unmoved

And the sights were as stark as my baby

And the cold was as sharp as my baby

And the nights were as dark as my baby

Half as beautiful too
