Lyrics Bastille – Durban Skies
Text:
All that I’ve got to be thankful for
All that I’ve got to be thankful for
In the heat, try to love these streets
In this town, it all went down
In my mind, in my mind
Where you led your lives
Before from our small island
Brought right back to these shores
To these shores, to these shores
Chorus
It’s alive, It’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, It’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city
I see it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban Skies
Oh oh oh.
All that I’ve got to be thankful for
On the day you made your vows
The heaven’s opened, rain poured down
It poured down
Down, down
Grey and brown, the seventies
The suits you wore, and the ones you loved
Were so young, were so young,
Chorus:
It’s alive, It’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, It’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city
I see it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban Skies
Oh oh oh.
All that I’ve got to be thankful for
Oh, all that I’ve got to be thankful for
All that I’ve got to be thankful for
Chorus
It’s alive, It’s alive
When I see it through your eyes
It’s alive, It’s alive
Now I understand your lives
When you take me there
You show me the city
I see it through your eyes
When you take me there
We drive through the city
Beneath the Durban Skies
When you take me there, ooh
When you take me there
It’s alive, It’s alive
When you take me there
It’s alive, It’s alive
