Lyrics of Violet Hill - Live by Coldplay
verse
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow
verse
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
verse
When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
chorus
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
verse
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And a fox became God
verse
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
verse
Bury me in honor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home it unfolds
chorus
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
bridge
I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, far below
chorus
So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?
verse
I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still
chorus
So if you love me
Won't you let me know?
chorus
If you love me,
Won't you let me know?
