Beach House Album

You know you're gold
You don't gotta worry none
Oasis child, born and so wild
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you

Your love is stag in the white sand
Wilderness for miles
Eyes so mild and wise
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you

Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us
Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us

Your love is stag in the white sand
Oasis child, born into a man
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you

Wilderness for miles
Eyes so mild and wise
Oasis child, born and so wild
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you

Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us
Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us

Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us
Anyway you run
You run before us
Black and white horse
Arching among us

We gather matters of the heart
So we can act a fool
It's incomplete without you
The silver soul is running through
It's a vision
Complete illusion, yeah

The needle on the spinning wheel
Collecting silver coil
It gathers heat without you
Whether or not you're turned from it
It's a quick turn
To let us in, yeah

It is happening again
It is happening again
It is happening again
Ah, it is happening again

The bodies lying in the sand
They're moving in the dark
It is so quick to let us in
Feel it moving through our skin
It's a sickness
Infinite quickness, yeah

It is happening again
It is happening again
It is happening again
Ah, it is happening again
It is happening again
Ah, it is happening again
It is happening again
Ah, it is happening again
It is happening again
Ah, it is happening again
It is happening again

We were sleeping till
You came along
With your tiny heart
You led us in the wooden house
To share in all the wealth
Don't you know it's true, oh

Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay

Seven figures lead the hungry mob
The beast, he comes to you
He's a hunter for a lonely heart
In the season of the sun
Don't you know it's true, oh

Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay

Where you thinking that you're gonna run to now
With the beating of a tiny heart?
Hang onto the things that you're supposed to say
Millions of stars, they open to your breath

Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay

You go for a walk in the park
'Cause you don't need anything
The hand that you sometimes hold
Doesn't do anything
The face that you see in the door
Isn't standing there anymore

In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time

The face that you saw in the door
Isn't looking at you anymore
The name that you call in its place
Isn't waiting for your embrace
The world that you love to behold
Cannot hold you anymore

In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time

More
You want more
More
You want more
More
You want more
You tell me
Only time can run me
More
You want more
You tell me more
Only time can run me
More
You want more
You tell me more
Only time can run me
More
You want more
You tell me more
Only time can run me
More
You want more
You tell me more
Only time can run me
More
You want more
You tell me more

You are coming home, are you still alone?
Are you not the same as you used to be?
As the sun grows high and you serve your time
Does each day just feel like another lie?

Now you know, is it just for show?
Just a foolish game that you hide behind
Don't forget the nights when it all felt right
Are you not the same as you used to be?
Used to be
Used to be

In an endless night, could you feel the fright
Of an age that was and could never be?
So we hold it close when we feel the most
Like a love that we could not leave behind

Turn the wheel to each way we feel
Till I'm lost and I cannot find you there
Don't forget the nights when it all right
Are you not the same as you used to be?
Used to be
Used to be

Coming home
Any day now
Any day now
Any day now
Coming home
Any day now
Any day now
Any day now
Coming home
Any day now
Any day now
Any day now

You hear my cry, lover of mine
No tear in the eye or fear in my mind
The forest is thick and we don't recognize
We parted our lips, and we reached from inside

Wide-open field
We know we can feel
Awake and unreal, oh
Off to nowhere
Off to nowhere

Off to nowhere

Need more people to be satisfied
No fear of a god and a prayer for the night
Come into our minds and you rush through our lives
We parted our lips, and we reached from inside

The wide-open field
We know we can feel
Awake and unreal, oh
Off to nowhere, hey

Off to nowhere

The only thing you've got (Off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (Off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (Off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (Off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it

Youngest fire
You decide
You decide
What is right
Youngest fire
Who decides?
We decide
What is right
Near yet so far
Isn't it?
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)

I want you
To know the truth
'Cause I've
Been around before
Thought I
Wasn't looking anymore

Been a fool for weeks
'Cause my heart stands for nothing
And your soul's too weak
Got a will
That's been around for days
Goes far if you want it
It needs to behave
But then you
You come around
Big mistake

I don't want to know
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know
Better times

Running around 'cause you beat yourself up
'Cause you made a crack and the one that you love is gone
How much longer can you play with fire
Before you turn into a liar, huh?

Running around 'cause you beat yourself up
'Cause you made a crack and the one that you love is gone
How much longer can you play with fire
Before you turn into a liar, huh?

I've been around before
Thought you weren't looking anymore
But then we
We come and go
Go up in smoke

I don't want to know
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know
Better times

The heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw
Put your hand on this stone, it's the stone of a home you know
They say we will go far, but they don't know how far we'll go
With our legs on the edge and our feet on the horizon

They say we can throw far, but they don't know how far we throw
With our legs on the edge and our feet on the horizon
The heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw
They say we will go far, but they don't know how far we'll go

It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we heard it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Tear a moment from the days
That carry us on forever

This push and pull is the force of a wave of time
In the heat of a night we would cry, you are not mine
They said we would go far, but they didn't know how far we'd go
'Cause this heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw

It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we saw it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Bright pyramids at night
That carry us on forever

It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we felt it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Love's like a pantheon
It carries on forever

I met you somewhere
In a hell beneath the stairs
There's someone in that room
That frightens you when they go boom
Boom, boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom

The color you say is black
Is the one you might lack
In the size of your eyes
Is there a righteous prize?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I met you
I met you

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh

There's something wrong with our hearts
When they beat pure, they stand apart
In the black room, the light
Watch the seabird fall
Real love, it finds you somewhere with your back to it

Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh

I met you
I met you

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh

We go, you know, we belong
By the street, to the dark
We go, you know, we belong
By the street, to the dark
We go, you know, we belong
By the street, to the dark
We go, you know, we belong
By the street, to the dark

Stand beside it
We can't hide the way it makes us glow
It's no good unless it grows
Feel this burning love of mine

Deep inside the ever-spinning
Tell me, does it feel?
It's no good unless it's real
Hillsides burning, wild-eyed turning
Till we're running from it

I'd take care of you
If you'd ask me to
In a year or two
Oh

You say swimming in the lake
We'll come across a snake
It is real and then it's fake
Feel its heartbeat
Feel what you heat
Far so fast it feels too late

I'd take care of you
If you'd ask me to
In a year or two
Oh

I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
Oh, I'd take care of you
Take care of you, that's true
