Mumford & Sons - Lover's Eyes Lyrics






Well, love was kind for a time
Now just aches and it makes me blind

This mirror holds my eyes too bright
I can't see the others in my life

Were we too young? Our heads too strong?
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes.
'Cause I feel numb, beneath your tongue
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

But do not ask the price I paid,
I must live with my quiet rage,
Tame the ghosts in my head,
That run wild and wish me dead.
Should you shake my ash to the wind
Lord, forget all of my sins
Oh, let me die where I lie
Neath the curse of my lover's eyes.

'Cause there's no drink or drug I've tried
To rid the curse of these lover's eyes
And I feel numb, beneath your tongue
Your strength just makes me feel less strong

But do not ask the price I paid,
I must live with my quiet rage,
Tame the ghosts in my head,
That run wild and wish me dead.
Should you shake my ash to the wind
Lord, forget all of my sins
Or let me die where I lie
Neath the curse of my lover's eyes.

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way.
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, I'll be on my way.

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way.
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, I'll be on my way.

La la la, La la la, La la la, la la
La la la, La la la, La la la, la la

    Unto the Earth
    Beneath the sky

    I love them . they are so soothing and calm. After a stressful day and settle in with a glass of wine and heater.

  3. P.... R....

    I’ve lived 61 years. Had many difficult and beyond sad experiences. Refuse to relive them all every day. I treasure many memories; look to a better future always.

    This song means something else to me, it relates to me having to watch my dad pass away from cancer...in so many different ways.
    'Beneath the curse of my lovers eyes'
    'Your strength just makes me feel less strong'
    'Ill walk slow, take my hand ...help me on my way..'

    Jesus is ALIVE He is alive, and He is coming for His bride who has been in the wilderness, being tested and tried, some through the waters, some through the blood, some through the fire, but all through the Blood, If you ask Jesus to be your saviour, if you admit you are a sinner, that you believe He died on the cross for your sins, and now you are ready to accept His free gift of salvation, then you will KNOW how much He loves you, He made each and everyone of you,, and He wants that none of you should perish. If you leave your decision of salvation till after He has taken His home, you will be killed if you do not recieve the mark or the chip, if you take the chip m it will alter your DNA and you will no longer belong to the human bloodline, therefore you cannot enter heaven. if you refuse the chip and they kill you, do not be afraid because before the guillotene blade hits, your spirit will be gone from your body, you will NOT feel pain, because your body will be empty of the spirit, this applies to any weapon they use against you,because as you now belong to Jesus God, the Holy Spirit will protect you. Jesus loves you guys, please dont stay here and be tortured anymore, this planet is a prison, btw if you take the chip you will end up in hell being tortured forever by the devil,,,,,

    I Love You All!!

  43. C.... K....

    I feel very zen right now... I am in love with this band...

  44. C.... C....

    Here is why I love this:
    1. You can more clearly hear hamonization, Marcus has such a majestically soaring voice, which quite often drowns the other guys.
    2. I enjoy a good spin around my living room with my loved one ( or my cat).
    3. Love the slow down at 2.53 - walk slow, sing slow 😊
    4. Love the solo thump, thump starting at 3.04. Which instrument? Bass?
    5. Just realizing that "shake my ash to the wind" is not " shake my arse to the wind as I thought 😂.

  45. i.... r....

    I heart them for long time

  46. G.... R....

    tame the goast in my head

  47. G.... R....

  62. C.... W....

    lovers eyes family betrayal

  63. C.... S....

    I think this song is about being under the curse of sin and hating it. A lot of people-Christians usually- over-interpret Mumford songs because they try to fit too much into them, like the whole gospel. Mumford and Sons rarely try to do that much with a song although they often offer hope at the end. This song is very thematically similar to Hopeless Wanderer. Lots of inspiration from Steinbeck in Mumford and Sons as well. The whole notion of being "east of eden," our separation from our maker (who M&S tell us in other songs that we were made to meet) because of our rebellion after the fall.

    C.... S....

    Constance Smith I was actually listening to the lyrics in I will wait and decided to listen to their other songs which I have never done before. I ended up being really confused lol none of the songs I listened to were bluegrassy either like I will wait

    C.... S....

    I'm reading East of Eden right now and Broken Crown and this song really reminded me of it.

  64. A.... Z....

    Love was kind for a time
    But now just aches and it makes me blind
    This mirror holds my eyes too bright
    But I can't see the others other in my life

    We too young and heads too strong
    To bear the weight of these lovers eyes
    I feel numb beneath your tongue
    Beneath the curse of these lovers eyes

    But do not ask the price I pay
    I must live with my quiet rage
    Tame the ghosts in my head
    That run wild and wish me dead
    Should you shake my ash to the wind
    Lord forget all of my sins
    And let me die where I lie
    Beneath the curse of these lovers eyes

    There is no drink or drug I've tried
    To rid the curse of these lover's eyes
    I feel numb beneath her tongue
    Her strength just makes me feel less strong

    But do not ask the price I pay
    I must live with my quiet rage
    Tame the ghosts in my head
    That run wild and wish me dead
    Should you shake my ash to the wind
    Lord forget all of my sins
    And let me die where I lie
    Beneath the curse of my lovers eyes

    I walk slow
    I walk slow
    Take my hand help me on my way, ha
