Mumford & Sons - The Wolf lyrics

Wide-eyed with a heart made full of fright Your eyes follow like tracers in the night And the tightrope that you wander everytime You have been weighed, you have been found wanting Been wondering for days How you felt me slip your mind Leave behind your wanton ways I want to learn to love in kind 'Cause you were all I ever longed for Sheltered, you better keep the wolf back from the door He wanders ever closer every night And how he waits begging for blood I promised you everything would be fine Been wondering for days How you felt me slip your mind Leave behind your wanton ways I want to learn to love in kind 'Cause you were all I ever longed for Hold my gaze love, you know I want to let it go We will stare down at the wonder of it all And I-I will hold you in it and I-I will hold you in it Been wondering for days How you felt me slip your mind Leave behind your wanton ways I want to look you in the eye 'Cause you were all I ever longed for Been wondering for days How you felt me slip your mind Leave behind your wanton ways I want to learn to love in kind 'Cause you were all I ever longed for
