Coldplay — Violet Hill






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 architecture
By a carnival of idiots on show
If you love me
Won't you let me know
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles

Chorus 2:
Bury me in armor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds
If you love me
Won't you let me know
With the captain of some sinking ship
With snow
Far below
So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?

Ending:
I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was s i l e n t still
So if you love me
Won't you let me know?
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
