Beirut – The Concubine

Note the lyrics. AND the video! Beirut. Love.

 

The Concubine

 

 

I've been so tired
One child, I wait for room to spare
I can't wait, child, and ride
It's all an empire long beheaded

 

I am grateful roaming
And so I long for your beacon riverside
Where I rest tonight

 

Down, autumn falls down
Autumn falls down
And I can hear the sound
All that for miles around it

 

Autumn falls down
Autumn falls down
And I just roam around
Oh, autumn never lands

 

Autumn never lands
Autumn falls down
All I can do to end it
I can never end it

 

Autumn falls down
Autumn falls down
All I can do to end it
I can never end it
