Bastille - Pompeii (Acoustic - Live in Paris)

Bastilhe - Pompeii
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?

We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settles around us

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?

Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?
How am i gonna be an optimist about this?

Gabrielle Aplin & Bastille - Dreams (Fleetwood Mac Cover)

Now here you go again

You say you want your freedom

Well who am I to keep you down?

It's only right that you should

Play the way you feel it

But listen carefully to the sound

Of your loneliness

Like a heartbeat .. drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had

And what you lost ...

And what you had ...

And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Say women they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean you'll know

You'll know

Now here I go again I see the crystal visions

I keep my visions to myself

It's only me who wants to

Wrap around your dreams and ...

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

Dreams of loneliness

Like a heartbeat .. drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had

And what you lost ...

And what you had ...

And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Women they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean you'll know

Thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Say women they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean you'll know

You'll know ...

You will know ...

Ooo you'll know
