Ben Howard – Esmerelda Lyrics

BEN HOWARD LYRICS

“Esmerelda”

I’m blinded, now I see a light,
Could not hold you, my orange tree leaf.
In the darkened room for three of us to share.

Maybe you were free
Before my blackened wound covered you.
I took the same from your song
I made a bet.

Will you know I’m bound.

Poor me, she fell beneath the wheels to help me out,
Black sea, I failed to be the light, you found it alone.
Oh, poor me, she failed beneath the wheels to help me out,
Black sea, the monster killed the melody alone.

And now I’m going places on my own.

Blinded, now I see the death
Moves amongst us and leaves such easy raft
To surround us, this silent piece, too hard to bare.

Lonely, oh, no, not me,
I have a great dare, fast moving feet,
You gave me light, but once was gone.
I made a bet.

And you know, you know,
Poor me, she fell beneath the wheels to help me out,
Black sea, I failed to be the light, you found it alone.
Oh, poor me, she failed beneath the wheels to help me out,
Black sea, the monster killed the melody alone.

And now I’m going places on my own.
All alone.
