Ben Howard - Sage That She Was Burning

Sage that she was burning
When she sang, she sang the clouds of all things
Hyacinth evening
Rattling the breeze in
We go swimming

Sage that she was burning
When she sang, she sang the clouds of all things
Hyacinth evening
Rattling the breeze in
We go swimming

Sinner, the sinner shouts
Half a lie comes halfway out
Halfway in a halfway house
The memory grows half asleep
Half a life is half in dream
Half a life is half in dream
They came asking for you

And the memory grows half asleep
Half a life is half in dream
Half a life is half in dream

I know all the right places
To lose you in the races

Howling in the distance
In the absolute distance
Palm fronds
A courtyard
A burning mind

Sage that she was burning
When she sang, she sang the clouds of all things
Hyacinth evening
Rattling the breeze in
We go swimming

Sage that she was burning
When she sang, she sang the clouds of all things
Hyacinth evening
Rattling the breeze in
We go swimming

The memory grows half asleep
Half a life is half in dream
Half a life is half in dream
