    Lyrics:
    Oh, how I wish I could drag you down here,
    Pull these feet far from the ground
    Cause this, this city ain't no friend of mine
    Ain't no friend.
    All I can do
    When the tracks stop at the final destination
    Is just push on through,
    The weariness and silences of such a crowded situation here.
    All I can do
    When every brick, every bar, every elegance I see, I see her face,
    Is just push on, just push on through,
    These embers of memories that float from the fire, from the fire of this place.
    So don't give up on me now,
    Oh these legs that'll walk me home.
    Because it's only concrete and cars,
    It's only sirens and missing stars,
    It's only whiskey and disregard
    In the smallest hours here, when I feel alone.
    All I can do
    When these lights, they haunt me like orchids in a graveyard,
    Is just just push on, just push on through
    These faces of dust and stone,
    The dirt and bone of loss.
    So don't give up on me now,
    Oh these legs that'll walk me home.
    Because it's only concrete and cars,
    It's only sirens and missing stars,
    It's only whiskey and disregard
    In the smallest hours here, when I feel alone.
    And I hope, Paris is as beautiful as I've been told
    And that everything you do is galvanized in gold.

    I'd be so happy if Ben put this on a record someday. In his new way, of course. I think it's not outside of his style today.

    Whoops forgot to check back. After I left the comment on the other version's video I did some digging and I actually found the this version again. Anyways, still a great upload! This version is ten times better if you ask me and is in my opinion one of Ben's best songs.

    Ed Sheehan is a superb artist. Ben howard can take you to a place of uncertainty with his music. Can Ed? that certain place with Ben I guess we all go back Too! Why? We choose Too.......

    Is the quotation in at the end screen from Ben (if so source would be awesome) or just one you feel applies, I certainly feel it matches with Ben either way!

    I'm so thankful that these songs exist (Soldiers, Keiko, London, A Hand to Hold, ..) I come back to them now and then, when I feel alone, sad.
    Do you know the song Lady of the Sunshine by Lady Sunshine (Angus Stone)? I could go on with suggestions that fill my heart :)

    Hey, that was cool, never heard that version! Keep uploading, some quality songs you got there. But maybe move your logo to one of the corners? I get that it's important, but sometimes it's completely blocking the view. Or maybe change the opacity, I don't know.

    • @Lespigo

    • @reuben6896
      @reuben6896 Před 5 lety

      You can't, sadly. I just downloaded this song to my phone so I can listen, but you can't get it legitimately anywhere unless you're willing to drop a few hundred £ on eBay.
