Lied van de week: week 52 - 2013

The old and the young - Midlake

Wat ik van het nieuwe album van Midlake vind, kon je hier al lezen. Ik vermeldde er ook al dat The old and the young een hoogtepunt is op die plaat, en daarmee mag Midlake als laatste dit jaar het "lied van de week" leveren. 

Je kan het album Antiphon hier kopen.

Lyrics:

Time will have warranted
All that the foliage brung
Falls to the ground
At the feet of the old and the young
Tired and worn
From a life made of wallow and pain
Of what will be made
Is all that remains at the core

Bear the old and the young
Time will have warranted
All that the foliage brung
Bear the old and the young

Awoke from a long one
That came on the heels of a day
Where sun would arise
And then grant us the kindness of ray
Fields full of gladness
Surrounded by droves that await
And look for the grave
In everything adorn
