lyrics

I could tell that you know where I’ve been
Isabel, Isabel
Where I end and the fire begins
Isabel, Isabel
‘Cause the fire told me that you’re next
Isabel, Isabel
And you just smiled and said “give him my best”

It’s my turn to stay up past the dawn
Isabel, Isabel
And for you to sleep with the lights on
Isabel, Isabel
‘Til the whispers return underground
Isabel, Isabel
We’ll rejoice without making a sound

It’s all very real
It’s all very real...

‘Cause your past is as dark as your eyes
Isabel, Isabel
And the future’s my death in disguise
Isabel, Isabel
While the present is split into two
Isabel Isabel
I’ll go mad but I’ll go there with you

It’s all very real
It’s all very real...

The horizon is on holiday
Isabel, Isabel
As our time in the blue turns us grey
Isabel, Isabel
All the whispers will turn into screams
Isabel, Isabel
And the only escape will be our dreams, Isabel

It’s all very real
It’s all very real
It’s all very real
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me, don’t tell me, don’t tell me
It’s all very real
It’s all very real
It’s all very real

I’ll go mad but I’ll go there with you
Isabel, Isabel
I’ll go mad but I’ll go there with you
Isabel
