after the storm

mumford & sons

and after the storm

i run and run as the rains come

and i look up

i look up

on my knees and out of luck

i look up. night has always pushed up day

you must know life to see decay

but i won't rot

i won't rot

not this mind and not this heart

i won't rot. and i took you by the hand

and we stood tall

and remembered our own land

what we lived for. and there will come a time

you'll see

with no more tears. and love will not break your heart

but dismiss your fears. get over your hill and see what you find there

with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair. and now i cling to what i knew

i saw exactly what was true

but oh no more. that's why i hold

that's why i hold with all i have. that's why i hold. and i won't die alone and be left there. well i guess i'll just go home

oh god knows where. because death is just so full and man so small. well i'm scared of what's behind and what's before. and there will come a time

you'll see

with no more tears. and love will not break your heart

but dismiss your fears. get over your hill and see what you find there

with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair. and there will come a time

you'll see

with no more tears. and love will not break your heart

but dismiss your fears. get over your hill and see what you find there

with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
