Glory

For all the moments never known

'Cause he stepped off of the tallest sail

For all the love he'd left below in the waves

He made his peace with letting go

He said some things he'd never dared to say

The one the lighthouse left alone, never saved

Till a set of eyes had pinned on

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they'll never haunt me

When she's singing to me, "Glory"

And a hopeful rhythm woke within him

She's singing to me, "Glory"

Had some letters written, 'course she's in 'em

She's singing to me, "Glory"

Tried to tell her, throat was linen

She's singing to me, "Glory"

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

She's singing to me, "Glory"

They found a letter that he wrote

He said, "It's best off if we burn the page"

I wrote it very long ago in different days

I guess I'm tired of talk of hope

I've learned that doves and ravens fly the same

But suddenly she's all I know, an old refrain

A set of eyes had pinned on

Became his version of a kingdom

Now I know they'll never haunt me

When she's singing to me, "Glory"

And a hopeful rhythm woke within him

She's singing to me, "Glory"

Had some letters written, 'course she's in 'em

She's singing to me, "Glory"

Tried to tell her, throat was linen

She's singing to me, "Glory"

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

She's singing to me, "Glory", oh

Ooh, glory

I was only ever thinking about you, you know

Singing to me, "Glory"

A set of eyes had pinned on

Became his version of a kingdom

She's everything the devil can't be

When she's singing to me, "Glory"

A set of eyes had pinned on

Became his version of a kingdom

She's everything the devil can't be

When she's singing to me, "Glory"

Glory

Glory

Ooh, she's singing to me, "Glory", no

She's singing to me, "Glory"
