picture you

Mumford & Sons

If i could tell you "no"
I thought it best you didn't know
Don't see it coming
The darkness visible
But when its eyes fix mine
The silver in its stone
I feel it rising, oh
The gathering storm

And when I feel a darkness is a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now
You don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to hide it
It's a heartbeat away

And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I had no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feel it's like there is nothing I can do
I picture you

And the night falls fast
I know it's heavy on the skin
Will it be ever thus?
They're barely visible
But when your eyes fix mine
Embracing you tonight
When I hold my breath
Through the waste and the while

When I feel it rising
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now
You don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I
Don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away

And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I had no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feels like it's nothing i could do
I picture you
