Violet Hill

Coldplay - Violet Hill

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow, white snow
Clearly I remember from the window
They were watching while we froze
Down below

When the future architecture
By carnival of idiots on show
You better lie low
If you love me, won't you let me know

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the frost became gone
Creased cut stones and bibles
Are all out to fade their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
There in me and I?

When I'm dead hit the ground
Legs are cold, unfold
And If you love me, won't you let me know

I don't wanna be a soldier
With a captain of some sinking ship
With snow
Far below
So, if you love, me why'd you let me go

I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silenced still
So, if you love me won't you let me know
If you love me won't you let me know
