Shallows (Live at Colston Hall, Bristol) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let the water rise
Let the ground crack
Let me fall inside
Lying on my back
Lying on my back

[Verse 2]
Dry your smoke-stung eyes
So you can see the light
You're staring at the sky
Watching stars collide
Watching stars

[Chorus]
If you leave
When I go
Find me
In the shallows
If you leave
When I go
Find me
In the shallows
Please, Hhhhhaaaaaa aaah haaa aaah haaa
Please, Hhhhhaaaaaa aaah haaa aaah haaa
[Verse 3]
When the time comes
On the last day
When they start to count down
Will you just
Will you run away?
Will you run away?

[Verse 4]
And let it all rain down
From the blood-stained clouds
Oh come out, come out, to the sea my love
And just
Just drown with me
Just drown with me

[Chorus]
If you leave
When I go
Find me
In the shallows
If you leave
When I go
Please try to find me
In the shallows
In the shallows
Please, Hhhhhaaaaaa aaah haaa aaah haaa
Please, Hhhhhaaaaaa aaah haaa aaah haaa
[Outro]
Lying on my back
Lying on my back
Lying on my baaaccckkk
Watching stars collide
Oooooouuuuuu
Hhhhhaaaaaa haaa
Oooooouuuuuu
Hhhhhaaaaaa haaa
I'm watching you
I'm watching you
I'm watching her
I'm watching

[Refrain]
If you leave
If you leave
If you leave
If you leave
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me
If you leave me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
