Bat For Lashes - Glass

Penyanyi : Bat For Lashes
Album : Two Suns (2009)
Judul Lagu : Glass



I will rise now
And go about the city
In the street's broadways I seek
Him whom my soul loveth

Went over the sea
What did I find
A thousand crystal towers
A hundred emerald cities
And the hand of the watchman
In the night sky
Points to my beloved
A knight in crystal armour

And I tried to hold him
I tried for the creed
I'll make a suit of colours
To stop the blinding mirrors
Sew a cape of red and gold
Stifled up the beam
With the perfect armour
With a perfect dream

To be made of glass
When two suns are shining
The battle becomes blinding
To be made of glass
But we ride tonight, tonight, tonight, we ride

And with two suns spinning
At two different speeds
Was born a hot, white diamond
Burning through the rainbow
Flames fell into orbit
To hold eternally
Two heavenly spirits
That just wouldn't seem

To be made of glass
When two suns are shining
The battle becomes blinding
To be made of glass
But we ride tonight, tonight, tonight, we ride

Bat For Lashes - Sleep Alone

Judul Lagu : Sleep Alone



You know my darling I can't stand to sleep alone
No sweetheart in the dark to call my own
You're my own, you're my own, I can sing it, I can grow
But the darkness is a stranger in our lonely, lonely, lonely lone (?)

Last night's parties and last night's heart has shown
Smiling and welling and kissing all I know
Give my soul, give my soul, sing it free across the sea
Lonely spell to conjure you, but conjure hell is all I do

Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
The dream of love is a two-hearted dream
Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
The dream of love is a two-hearted dream

They say for every heart high there must be a low, low, low, low, low
And every sun ascending a lonesome moon will grow, grow, grow, grow
Drive my heart, drive my heart, into the fire of a burning heart's desire
The only spells you'll be seeing, do you hear me coming in my blue dream

Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
The dream of love is a two-hearted dream
Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
The dream of love is a two-hearted dream

Judul Lagu : Moon And Moon



Lover when you don't lay with me
I'm a huntress for a husband lost at sea
If I had you here, we were here together
I'd be boy and you'd be girl, beautiful

Calling moon and moon
Shoot that big bad hand
It'll drag me to your door
Now I won't see you no more

When this wild world is a big bad hand
Pushing me on my back do you understand
When I get home being in the jungle
Where's my bear to lick me clean
Feed my soul milk and honey

Calling moon and moon
Shoot that big bad hand
It'll drag me to your door
Now I won't see you no more

I won't see you no more

Bat For Lashes - Daniel

Judul Lagu : Daniel



Daniel when I first saw you
I knew that you had a flame in your heart
And under our blue skies
Marble movie skies
I found a home in your eyes
We'll never be apart

And when the fires came
The smell of cinders and rain
Perfumed almost everything
We laughed and laughed and laughed

And in the golden blue
Crying took me to
The darkest place she knew
And set fire to my heart

When I run in the dark,
Daniel
To a place that's lost
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home

But in a goodbye bed
With my arms around your neck
Into our love the tears crept
Just kids in the eye of the storm

And as my heart ran round
My dreams pulled me from the ground
Forever to search for the flame
For home again
For home again

When I run in the dark,
Daniel
To a place that's lost
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home

When I run in the dark,
Daniel
To a place that's lost
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home

Bat For Lashes - Peace Of Mind

Judul Lagu : Peace Of Mind



Look at this and look at us
We wonder, oh we're wandering
And I don't like to say we're lost
Try my best with leading us

Build a ladder to the sky
(To the sky)
Sit up there and say "oh my!"
(Say oh my!)
Does looking down make me a Queen
(Make a me a Queen)
With all the sorrow that I've seen
(That I've seen)

If I ever get back down
Find a map that takes me back
Through the wounded, through the wars
To a time that came before

To hover-board into the Sun
And bring back when my time is done
A mother for this childless world
And an arrow of light for every boy and girl

And peace of mind
Peace of mind
Peace of mind...

Bat For Lashes - Siren Song

Judul Lagu : Siren Song



Are you my family
Can I stay with you a while
Can I stop off in your bed tonight
I can make you smile

In the morning I'll make you breakfast
In the evening I'll warm the bed
And I'll always be happy to kiss you
Promise I'll never get sad

Till the sirens come calling, calling
It's driving me evil, evil
Mama was a heartbreaker
Loved you the same way I do
But I've got so much wickedness and sin

My name is Pearl
And I love you the best way I know how
My blonde curls slice through your heart
When the sirens come calling
It won't be long until you're running

Help you dress yourself up fancy
And bathe you when you get sore
I'll be good, I think I could
Be all you would want and more and more

Be proud when you dazzle the wanderers
And glitter your eyes for the town
Tell every last boy that you're my man
I'll try not to let you down

Till the sirens come calling, calling
It's driving me evil, evil
Mama was a heartbreaker
Loved you the same way I do
But I've got so much wickedness and sin

My name is Pearl
And I love you the best way I know how
My blonde curls slice through your heart

When the stars are exploding in your eyes
It won't be long till you're running
No it won't be long till you're running
It won't be long until you're running
It won't be long until you're running
‘Cause I'm evil, 'cause I'm evil

Judul Lagu : Pearl's Dream



There's a place I must go
There's a place I must go
It's not a place I have seen
But I'll get there in a blue dream

Down the ocean road
Past a sign that says 'Good Love Town'
Into a darkness where the stars do drown
But a star in me needs to be free

And when the battle was done
I was promised my Sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

And when the battle was done
I was promised my Sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

There's a place I must go
There's a place I must go
For my heart is a child
That stumbles lonely for the arms of the wild

Hear the desert sigh
Sing the city's lullaby
The giant iris of the wild blue sky
Is showing me the way

And when the battle was done
I was promised my Sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

And when the battle was done
I was promised my Sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders

Bat For Lashes - Good Love

Penyanyi : Bat For Lashes

Judul Lagu : Good Love



In the night time we are found
Misty sorrows swoop unbound
Whisper you mean it, say you'll stay
Hold my heart till brighter days

Now I am searching and I'll do it alone
This Queen of Heart dancing on her throne
But I need sorrow baby, like sorrow is the drug
So will I ever find that place they call "Good Love"

"Good Love"
Passed it last night in a dream

"Good Love"
And my heart caught fire
Went up in flames

I drove past true love once in a dream
Like a house that caught fire, it burned and flamed
Then the magician disappeared as quickly as he came
And with a sound like white magic caught in a black car's blazing trail

The house set fire to my heart
And like an inferno we shone and raged
And I'd swallowed the Sun in your form
And I woke up and you were crying
I woke up and you were saying

"Good Love"
Passed it last night in a dream
Was that "Good Love"
'Cause my heart caught fire
Went up in flames
"Good Love"
Passed it last night in a dream

Was that "Good Love"
'Cause my heart caught fire
Went up in flames

Bat For Lashes - Two Planets

Judul Lagu : Two Planets



We are strangers in a strange land
Wanderers in a vast and unknowable universe

Show me moonlight on the sunrise
I've seen so many planets dancing
I've seen too many people hiding

Show me sunset and I won't forget
That I am one of two planets dancing
I am one of two planets dancing

Shallow man
Sign your name
On my Sun

The song of Solomon
Died in the battleground
The song of Solomon
Died in love's battleground

I am full
Shattered by this sailing time
For all your suffering by night
Oh warm, but under bright

And life is so much dark and light
When day cannot exist without a night
And you are not separate from me
I am a heart that's full of life

And to be shared on this night
Feel my hands, feel my life
For the sun and the stars
Of my Mother and my sisters

I know where the form is changing
I know that the stars will follow me

Bat For Lashes - Travelling Woman

Judul Lagu : Travelling Woman



Hang on travelling woman
Don't sacrifice your plan
'Cause it will come back to you
Before you lose it on the man

Never fall in love with potential
‘Cause you can see with your own eyes
All the pretty faces and sorry words
Can take away your pride

Got to listen
To the vision
Some may say a dream
Words for the unseen

Or it can make you tired, tell you lies and make you fall
Make you tired, tell you lies and make you fall
Make you tired, tell you lies and make you fall

Hang on travelling woman
Don't sacrifice your plan
'Cause it will come back to you
Before you lose it on the man

Got to listen
To the vision
Play in the ashes
Of what you once were

Got to listen
To the vision
Play in the ashes
Of what you once were
