Figure 8 Lyrics & Chords By Ben Howard

Breathe your smoke into my lungs,
In the back of a car with you I stare into the sun,
Still not too old to die young,
Still lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
And then you take it all away
Place a kiss on my cheekbone,
When you vanish me, I'm buried in the snow,
But something tells me I'm not alone,
But lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
I chase your love around a figure 8,
I need you more than I can take,
You promise forever and a day,
And then you take it all away,
And then you take it all away
So lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything,
So lovers hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
(Mmm mmmm)
Twice I turn my back on you,
Fell flat on my face but did I lose,
Oh, tell me child where would I go,
Tell me would it let you on, I'd love to know,
Was it a Moon night, gone fragile,
Was it two on wheel and the mirror holding and steer us down (mmmm)
I chase your love around a figure 8 (twice I turn my back on you),
I need you more than I can take (tell me child where will I go),
You promise forever and a day (I won't let you go),
And then you take it all away,
Away, away, away, away
So lover hold on to everything,
And lovers hold on to anything
