Foals

Neptune

Foals


Now it's time to go
From the white wards of England
Where the crows line the rivers and roads

I wanna walk where I know
Through the olive groves
The sky that knows my name
It gave me away

The magnolia Moon
Like an eggshell, a white bell
To lighten my cold room

So let me sleep where I lay
With a murder of crows
That live in the bows of my brain

See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, I'm singing please
Come and take me away

Time brings low all good things
When you open your eyes
When you open your eyes

Now, in the vastness of pines
Where my ghost lies in loose-limbed array
I pass the time

Go upload my heart
To the fatal shore
Forever more it spins there
Behind closed doors

Now it's time to go
Through the fields of chrome
The rusted homes abandoned
At the remains of the day

So come row me away
On black rivers and rainbows
To Neptune, where I can stay

See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, begging please
Come and take me away
Come take me away
Come take me away

Time brings low the best of things
When you open your eyes
When you open your eyes, yeah
Time brings low all the things
When we open our eyes
When we open our eyes

Oh, I waited so long
On the slow shores of England
To sing my last song
To come roll me away
On black rivers and rainbows
To Neptune where I can stay

See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, I'm begging please
Come and take me away
Come take me away
Come take me away
