Burgh Island lyrics - Ben Howard (feat. Monica Heldal)

With brown eyes shining, a sure light on a way to go

And the sun chides you're reeling home, against your glow

And we lost sight of it, and breath tied up in summer's hold

And your eyes screamed it, Burgh Island, in sepia tones

And if I was ever to leave, I'll say before I go

That you're the best woman I ever known

With brown eyes shining, a sure line on a way to go

And the sun chides you so long

And we lost sight of it, and breath tied up in summer's hold

And we'll break for it, on Burgh Island in sepia tones

And if I was ever to leave, I'll say before I go

That you're the best woman I have ever known

Oh, I bite my tongue, that you may be the first to ruin

'Cause I heard it sung, that man is a fickle child

The wind blew in

Oh, I bite my tongue, that you may be the first to ruin

'Cause I heard it sung, that man is a fickle child

The wind blew in
