Nocturne - Live at the Royal Opera

I used to be a dancer in a soothing sun
The forest was my company and I danced around
So pure and innocent it was, my heart
Kept from all the talk
I wouldn't change a thing, it was a perfect start
Yeah

But I became uncertain as my world began
I wasn't much for talking, so I kept it in
A covert disappointment spread all around
All I heard was: "keep it down"
I needed to feel hurt and some hurt I found
Eh, eh, ah, ah, ah, oh

So I began to search for all the black within
Found more than I could ask for but I asked again
My friends and I were complemented complex liars
Oh, how we romanticised
Or were we just uncovering our blinded eyes?

I jumped out and I fell for anyone with scars
And they were like sirens for my empty heart
And everytime I think of it as lessons learned
Everytime I crashed and burned
To feel was what I wanted and what I had to earn

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
