COLDPLAY - VIOLET HILL

 

 

Was a long and dark December

From the rooftops I remember

There was snow

White snow

 

Clearly I remember

From the windows they were watching

While we froze down below

 

When the future's architectured

By a carnival of idiots on show

You'd better lie low

 

If you love me

won't you let me know?

 

Was a long and dark December

When the banks became cathedrals

And the fox

Became God

 

Priests clutched onto bibles

And went out to fit their rifles

And the cross was held aloft

 

Bury me in honour

When i'm dead and hit the ground

A love back home unfolds

 

If you love me

Won't you let me know?

 

I don't want to be a soldier

With the captain of some sinking ship

With snow, far below

 

So if you love me

Why'd you let me go?

 

I took my love down to violet hill

There we sat in snow

All that time she was silent still

 

So if you love me

Won't you let me know?

 

If you love me,

Won't you let me know?
