Ben Howard - Are You Ready lyrics

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? 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? 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?
