[Verse 1]
Look back now as the night draws in
She stands on the snowline and smiles
And you frame that grin
With the bones of small animals caught in the woods
Where you walked in the evening, until in the old pub
Sat between horse brass and kappa shell suits
And you talked about physics and people you know
[Chorus]
Oh, isn't this good
Look at the beautiful faces that gather round
Oh, battles and heights
Climb in your skull and lean in for the ride
[Verse 2]
You held on in the sideways rain
You lip read and laughed at the wind
And traversed the peninsula carefully that way
Thе photos were too dark to see
But for years you could conjurе up danger and safety by
Running your fears down the ridge
Of a wet English shoreline in darkest December
[Chorus]
Oh, isn't this good
Look at the beautiful faces that gather round
Oh, battles and heights
Climb in your skull and lean in for the ride
[Bridge]
Feel the bed beneath you
The sleepy-eyed ravens are gathering in you
Eyes are all you ave left to speak for you
All of this is done
All of this is done
No place to be, there's no carry on
No fuss to make
No grand mistakes
All of this is done
[Chorus]
Oh, isn't this good
Look at the beautiful faces that gather round
Oh, battles and heights
Climb in your skull and lean in for the ride
