kris drever, john mccusker & roddy woomble – before the ruin lyrics

[verse 1]
when all these things have gone
they’ve gone in love and they’ve gone in wonder
and cracks appears in rocks
and the cabin shakes in thunder
and the local men explained to me
how the soil and the sea they have no calendar
in nights of cold and rain
we raise our ghosts to take our blame

[chorus]
we take what we want from everything we can
all before the ruin
we’ll takе what we want from everything wе can
all before the ruin

[verse 2]
and you wore my silver ring
in exchange for the ring i wear
as we crumpled our sleep together
i’m still tasting the salt in your hair
each generation will have
much less happiness to spare
the night thickens with the rain
and our ghosts appear to take our blame
[chorus]
we take what we want from everything we can
all before the ruin
we take what we want from everything we can
all before the ruin
and you can say what you say, but each new day
it’s a walk towards the ruin

[verse 3]
night replaces spring with autumn
turn your face away
as one by one our thoughts return
the daylight leaves the day
i’ll hold your hand towards the ruin
turn your face away
as lonesome as a distant road
when it’s our turn to fade away
when it’s our turn to fade away
when it’s our turn to fade away
