Glory - Dermot Kennedy

For all the moments never known

'Cause he stepped off of the tallest sail

For all the love he’d left below

In the waves

He made his peace with letting go

Said some things he’d never dared to say

The one the lighthouse left alone

Never saved

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they’ll never hunt me

When she’s singing to me «Glory»

(And a hopeful rhythm woke within him)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

(Had some letters written, 'course she’s in 'em)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

(Tried to tell her, throat was linen)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

She’s singing to me «Glory»

They found a letter that he wrote

He said «it's best off if we burn the page»

I wrote it very long ago

In different days

I guess I’m tired of talk of hope

I’ve learned that doves and ravens fly the same (fly the same)

But suddenly she’s all I know

An old refrain

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they’ll never hunt me

When she’s singing to me «Glory»

(And a hopeful rhythm woke within him)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

(Had some letters written, 'course she’s in 'em)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

(Tried to tell her, throat was linen)

She’s singing to me «Glory»

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

She’s singing to me «Glory»

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

Singing to me «Glory"(Oh)

(Glory)

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

Singing to me «Glory»

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

She’s everything the devil can’t be

When she’s singing to me «Glory»

A set of eyes had pinned him

Became his version of a kingdom

She’s everything the devil can’t be

When she’s singing to me «Glory»

(Glory, glory, oh)

She’s singing to me «Glory», no (glory)

Singing to me «Glory"(glory)
