Are You Ready - Ben Howard
Over these hills and valleys that I've seen as a young boy
I found shelter in my solitude, I found safety in the sea
And all these country lanes would twist and turn
Young eyes would find a flicker in the darkness and burn
Those were days so empty a cast was a consern
When loved ones told me that from disaster we can always learn
In those hazy hours my mother would sit me down
Saying don't depend on tomorrow, cause tomorrow can sometimes let you down
Oh are you ready, are you ready for this?
Are you ready, are you ready for it all?
Are you ready, are you ready for the changes, changes that fall? [x2]
No car and aeroplane rides, oh I saw the world here
With a brand new, a brand new set of eyes
And I met the devil at the crossroads
She was dressed in red
And her eyes were more beautiful that the stars
She laid my body down to rest under the bracken
And the moonlight covered the moors
And I swear there was music behind every door
Oh are you ready, are you ready for this?
Are you ready, are you ready for it all?
Are you ready, are you ready for the changes, changes that fall? [x2]
Cause we all, we all, we all fall down sometimes
We all, we all, we all feel the wings of tragedy
We all, we all, we all see angels, angels in the hardest hours
We all, we all, we all feel the wings of tragedy rush against us
Oh are you ready, are you ready for this?
Are you ready, are you ready for it all?
Are you ready, are you ready for the changes, changes that fall? [x3]
