Mumford & Sons - Hopeless Wanderer Lyrics






You heard my voice I came out of the woods by choice
Shelter also gave their shade
But in the dark I have no name

So leave that click in my head
And I will remember the words that you said
Left a clouded mind and a heavy heart
But I was sure we could see a new start

So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road

But hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer

I wrestled long with my youth
We tried so hard to live in the truth
But do not tell me all is fine
When I lose my head, I lose my spine

So leave that click in my head
And I won't remember the words that you said
You brought me out from the cold
Now, how I long, how I long to grow old

So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road

But hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
The skies I'm under

  1. E.... G....

    wait but why and how

  2. N.... G....

    Looks like Marty Bird found a new profession

  3. A.... R....

    Jajaja OMG it's waaaooooool

  4. M.... R....

    I appreciate the talent but this isn't really my thing.  Was just listening and decided to skip at around 3:16 and finally saw the video and thought "WTF?!".  I watched/listened to the whole thing out of respect for the ability to have a little fun.  Well done!

  5. F.... ....

    Andy really did make it in the music biz

  6. M.... S....

    Root doot doo doo doo!

  7. K.... B....

    That kiss was not planned!!! Lmaoo

  8. C.... H....

    I need a film, in which all of them star in

  9. R.... ....

    i might have liked this if some asshole hadn't popped it in the middle of a tom waits playlist. Jarring, annoying and the video is like aggressive homoeroticism if you watch it with the sound down. lol

  10. N.... C....

    First time seeing Mumford and sons.
    Wait a minute... I already know these guys!

  11. A.... P....

    One of these men is the Onceler, one is a money launderer, one is Shaggy, and one is only paying Jennifer Aniston $30,000.

  12. C.... A....

    Makes me lol and gag when they trace the tracks of each other's tears with their fingertips...so gross...gets me every time 🤣🤮
    Edit; *HE ATE THEM* Bateman! Oh hell *nope!* 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮

  13. D.... ....

    Noooo the instruments 😖

  14. P.... j....

    Glad to see moss and Andy Bernard made it finally. Question?! Is that schrute farm?

  15. O.... X....

    Me and da bois in da class alone

  16. A.... M....

    I was watching this and was like when did Jason Sudeikis join the band lol

  17. F.... T....

    "Y'all cannot just stand there and cry."


    "WE SO CAN JUST STAND HERE AND CRY!!!"

  18. A.... P....

    This is still my favorite music video to this day.

  19. N.... F....

    Nooo, the poor instruments !!!

  20. W.... ....

    It looks like Andy Bernard got some old friends from Cornell and were messing around in Dwight's barn. Lol

  21. m.... ....

    Mumford and sons is a band I keep coming back to.

  22. A.... H....

    Was this filmed at Schrute Farms?

  23. A.... M....

    Jason's expression at 3:39 is everything

  24. J.... V....

    Love everything about this song and such a great idea for the video!!

  25. D.... S....

    The first album was flawless, but this is the only song from Babel that hits me the same way.

  26. Z.... ....

    Haha this shit confused me for a bit.

    "Is...is that....Jason Sudeikis?....Will Forte?.....well, time to google this."

  27. T.... T....

    Absolutely fabulous!! Come back to this now and then, always makes me laugh my ass off!!

  28. V.... a....

    Me: damn I havent heard Mumford and Sons in a hot minute let me check them out. I've only ever listened to Little Lion Man, The Cave, and I will Wait. Oh damn let me check out this song.

    Me watching the video for the first time: ...is that Jason Sudeikis?

  29. P.... T....

    I just Googled it, because I wasn't sure if it was just a coincidence, but that really is Andy Bernard (Ed Helms).

  30. A.... K....

    best ever i see

  31. R.... P....

    So, it's Ed Helms, Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and who is the 4th dude? I can't put my finger on it

  32. d.... d....

    wackest band ever

  33. C.... H....

    This just shows that you don't have to grow up

  34. C.... H....

    Best video ever

  35. J.... M....

    This is an absolutely beautiful song

  36. R.... P....

    Why the heck was he licking the other guys tears? Creepy

  37. s.... p....

    Andy and the Zits jamming at Schrute Farms

  38. h.... ....

    This video makes me giggle every time I see it. But I have to admit I don’t care for the end ... I love music so much that I consider all musical instruments akin to “sacred ground.” And I cannot play any of them myself (my mom forced me to take 2 years of piano when I was a kid, but I had absolutely *zero* talent for it ... however, I have what most people consider a *massive* CD collection and somehow manage to listen to all of them!)

  39. C.... S....

    Jajaja I love it!

  40. J.... A....

    They make this video so perfect. All of them are hilarious! There is nothing that Ed Helms plays in that I don’t laugh throughout the entire time.

  41. O.... A....

    2:56, in the boat. LMAO

  42. N.... B....

    I literally didnt realize who they were at first

    N.... B....

    Nick Bruce same here. They actually made it look like a decent music video for a bit

  43. K.... M....

    one of them looks like ed helms

  44. P.... 6....

    These guys straight up suck!

  45. P.... 6....

    These guys straight up suck!

  46. O.... ....

    This video just impregnated me.

  47. N.... M....

    I love these guys. Both the group, and the comedians. Best video ever !!!

  48. G.... ....

    Most bands hire roadies to haul their gear. Cheap bastards!

  49. I.... I....

    You don’t know how hard I laughed at the video and Sandburg is hilarious

  50. I.... N....

    this video slowly descends into chaos and i love it

  51. I.... N....

    Duuuuude this is my first time listening to mumford and sons and i'm doing homework but i took a peek at the video and saw Andy Bernard and my initial reaction was "???? HE CAN SING???" but then I read the comments lmfaooo

  56. C.... J....

  57. G.... R....

  58. G.... D....

    cosa si vuol dire con la frase non tenere il bicchiere sulla fiamma? Don't hold a glass over the flame

  59. J.... S....

    When you reveal who you are to the world...

  60. S.... L....

  63. S.... T....

  64. E.... E....

    I love how it starts off semi-serious looking and just gets progressively more bonkers...

  65. A.... W....

  66. B.... ....

  92. E.... F....

    'Hold me farts' is what he seems to be singing, 'hold me farts, hold me farts...bleeeehhh, bleeeeehhh, bleeeehhh…'.He's telling someone to hold his farts.

    E.... F....

    Don't ruin a great song

  93. N.... B....
