Damien Rice – The Animals Were Gone Lyrics  Share

From Damien Rice's album: 9

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
It^,s left this house empty now, not sure if I belong
Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song
I^,ll do my best now but you^,ve been gone now for so long

The window^,s open now and the winter settles in
We^,ll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
I love your depression and I love your double chin
I love most everything you bring to this offering

Oh I know that I^,ve left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you so please throw down your hair

At night I dream without you
And hope I don^,t wake up
Cause waking up without you
Is like drinking from an empty cup

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
[ The Animals Were Gone lyrics from

Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We can get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We can make babies and accidental songs

I know I^,ve been a liar and I know I^,ve been a fool
I hope we didn^,t break it but I^,m glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you

Oh I know I^,ve left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you so please throw down your hair

At night I dream without you
And hope that I don^,t wake up
Cause waking up without you
Is like drinking from an empty cup
