Mumford & Sons - Not With Haste (iTunes Festival 2012)



"Not With Haste"

Your eyes they tie me down so hard
I'll never learn to put up a guard
So keep my love, my candle bright
Learn me hard, oh learn me right

This ain't no sham
I am what I am

Though I may speak some tongue of old
Or even spit out some holy word
I have no strength from which to speak
When you sit me down, and see I'm weak

We will run and scream
You will dance with me
They'll fulfill our dreams and we'll be free

And we will be who we are
And they'll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away

So as we walked through fields of green
Was the fairest sun I'd ever seen
And I was broke, I was on my knees
And you said yes as I said please

This ain't no sham
I am what I am
I leave no time
For a cynic's mind

We will run and scream
You will dance with me
Fulfill our dreams and we'll be free

We will be who we are
And they'll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away

Do not let my fickle flesh go to waste
As it keeps my heart and soul in its place
And I will love with urgency but not with haste

April Smith - Movie Loves A Screen




"Movie Loves A Screen"


One means somebody's lonely
Company means there are two
Three means a crowd, and it's about to get loud
And four means more than a few

Five means to take a quick little break
And get back to work when you're through
I just want to mean something to you

Lightning means there'll be thunder
Sun means the sky'll be blue
When the leaves are falling, it means that autumn is calling
And the summer days are through

Snowflakes mean that it's winter
Yeah, the birds'll tell you it's true
I just want to mean something to you

Maybe what I mean to say
Is that I think about you in the most romantic of ways
And I'm hoping you'll be open to discussing us and nothing in between

Maybe what I mean is that I love you more than any other I've seen
If you couldn't tell well I hope you're quite keen on it
Like a rhyme loves a sonnet
Like a movie loves a screen
That's what I wanna mean to you

Laughing means there is happiness
Crying means somebody's blue
Screaming implies someone's been telling lies
Or an apology is overdue

A smile means things turned out alright
Despite an oversight or two
I just want to mean something to you
I just want to mean something to you

I just want to mean something to you
I just want to mean something to you
