Pompeii (Live) - Bastille
Lyrics by:Smith Campbell
Composed by:Smith Campbell
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settled around us
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
And if you close your eyes
Eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Oh where do we begin
The rubble or our sins
Oh oh where do we begin
The rubble or our sins
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
Eh eh oh eh oh
