For Island Fires and Family - Dermot Kennedy

Lyrics by：Dermot Kennedy

Composed by：Dermot Kennedy

Produced by：Carey Willetts

How it must feel to be a bird

Roamin' lonely over sea air

How it must feel to be a bird

London Paris underneath

And I'll wait on my own

Ooh hmm ooh

Ooh hmm ooh yeah

And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry

And no you couldn't tell me enough that you love me

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me

D**n permanent reverie

And even though this life this love is brief

I've got some people who carry me

Wasn't it love as soon as we knew each other properly

Livin' 'bout half right 'til a certain person got to me

Nothin' is secret everythin's sacred how it ought to be

Under the moonlight on a clear night

On rooftops is where I want to be

Sometimes I'm like a child that's somethin' I can't release

Dreams of her comin' home sweet home

And I'm tellin' you home is so sweet

Said you reminded me of the summertime and I still mean that

In a full room I'm the only one she's smilin' at

So wouldn't you let me know

If you were thinkin' less of me

That's what she asked me

What was promised what we both agreed

But truthfully if you ever go

You'll drop me straight to Hell the 7th circle

And I was talkin' with you earlier

We were open and vulnerable it was wonderful

I I used to dream that you would talk to me

I used to dream that you would talk to me

And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry

And no you couldn't tell me enough that you love me

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me

D**n permanent reverie

And even though this life this love is brief

I've got some people who carry me

You know that feelin' when you think your

Heart is gonna come right out through your shirt

Get it a couple times a year

But I've been gettin' it more often with her

Now when I'm face to face with death I'll grab his throat

And ask him How does it hurt

Up in those golden moments growin' old too quickly

Was he thinkin' of her

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me

D**n permanent reverie

And even though this life this love is brief

I've got some people who carry me
