Mumford & Sons - Slip Away

No more questions no more lies
Do and deal for no surprises
'Cause you will never slip away
Slip away in the night

Waiting patient for the sun to rise
In reveals a stoic smile
But you will never slip away
Slip away in the night

You find me waiting here for you
Come and suffer here
You find me holding my breath for you
Come and suffer here

In the violence of a mind's eye
We had a deal for no surprises
'Cause you will never slip away
Slip away in the night

But you're not yourself
I know you better than you
But you're not yourself
I know you better than you

You find me holding my breath for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
You find me on my knees for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way

Don't you lie down
Be still in love
Don't you leave now
Be still in love
Don't you leave now
Be still

You find me holding my breath for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
You find me on my knees for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way

But you're not yourself
I know you better than you
And you're not yourself
I know you better than you
