Foxes - Hearts Lyrics

You want the fruit that hits the ground
You like the taste in your mouth
Bitter-sweet, broken down
Leaves you feeling wanted
I was born in the wild
Let me loose, I'm hunting
Nature was like a shark
Send the seeds out in the world

I see a home behind your eyes
I sleep forever waiting for it
These open skies where I belong
You put a roof over me

Hope I don't wake up before you let the light in
I hope I never see what goes on while I'm sleeping
Hearts and daggers
They seem to go together
Like fire's burning the rain

A drummer beats, a sorry sound
Gives this marching rhythm
Through the dark, alone and loud
This is how we move on
Pull the stars from the night
Light the way before you
Here's a heart, here's a knife
To cut the ropes and sail away

I see a home behind your eyes
I sleep forever waiting for it
These open skies where I belong
You put a roof over me

Hope I don't wake up before you let the light in
I hope I never see what goes on while I'm sleeping
Hearts and daggers
They seem to go together
Like fire's burning the rain

Tear up the maps that brought us here
Never go back and never fear
Don't let the real world take me away
Dreaming forever, forever

Hope I don't wake up before you let the light in
I hope I never see what goes on while I'm sleeping
Hearts and daggers
They seem to go together
Like fire's burning the rain
