life in the time of captivity - ben howard lyrics
[verse 1]
how was i to know?
kinship there in the reverie
it’s a climbing wind we go through
two by two
not asking why
how was i supposed to sing?
happens all of the time they say
you and i are supposed to know
each other better than the clouds these days
it’s a madding century
clad in
honest
always
[chorus]
life in the time of captivity
love in the time of sanctuary
life in the time of captivity
love in the time of singing song
[verse 2]
how was i to know?
how was i to know?
kinship there in the reverie
guess it goes to show
we don’t speak half truths each
when we have the day
it’s a climbing wind we go through
two by two
not asking why
it was all a show then
blue river true running through you
always
[chorus]
life in the time of captivity
love in the time of sanctuary
life in the time of captivity
love in the time of singing song
[verse 3]
how was i to know?
how was i to know?
some go out to rikers in a moment’s grace
i was hanging on coattails
fare thee wells
all that jiving around
guess it goes to show
we don’t speak half truths each
when we have the day
