Cosmic Love

Florence And The Machine · Mtv Unplugged [2012]

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes

I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind



The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart



And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat

I tried to find the sound

But then, it stopped, and I was in the darkness,

So darkness I became



The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart



I took the stars from my eyes, and then I made a map

And knew that somehow I could find my way back

Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too

So I stayed in the darkness with you



The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart



The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart
