Glory

Glory - Dermot Kennedy

For all the moments never known

'Cause he stepped off of the tallest sail

For all the love he'd left below

In the waves

He made his peace with letting go

Said some things he'd never dared to say

The one the lighthouse left alone

Never saved

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they'll never hunt me

When she's singing to me glory

And a hopeful rhythm woke within him

She's singing to me glory

Had some letters written course she's in 'em

She's singing to me glory

Tried to tell her throat was linen

She's singing to me glory

I was only ever thinking about you you know

She's singing to me glory

They found a letter that he wrote

He said it's best off if we burn the page

I wrote it very long ago

In different days

I guess I'm tired of talk of hope

I've learned that doves and ravens fly the same

But suddenly she's all I know

An old refrain

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they'll never hunt me

When she's singing to me glory

And a hopeful rhythm woke within him

She's singing to me glory

Had some letters written course she's in 'em

She's singing to me glory

Tried to tell her throat was linen

She's singing to me glory

I was only ever thinking about you you know

She's singing to me glory

I was only ever thinking about you you know

Singing to me glory

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

She's everything the devil can't be

When she's singing to me glory

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

She's everything the devil can't be

When she's singing to me glory

Glory glory oh

She's singing to me glory no

Singing to me glory
