Pompeii (Bastille Cover) Songtext

von Bea Miller

I was left to my own devices
Many days
Fell away
With nothing to show

And the world 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?
But 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 settled around us

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we loooooove
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?

Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-eh-o eh-o

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

And the wall kept tumbling down
In the city that we loooove
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?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all

Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-Eh-o eh-o
Eh-eh-o eh-o
