The only musical piece on my blog!… because this song and performance is utterly a masterpiece (released in 2016), sharing it might brighten your day or appreciate life / love more amidst whatever it is you’re going through these days (i.e. quarantine of 2020!). Feel the immense passion in this musical piece and appreciate it further with its piercing lyrics. Surreal.
[Verse 1: Baaba Maal] Listen to me, I want to tell you something The reason I love you is because You are the only one who has taught me how to love And appreciate life [Chorus: Mumford & Sons] But in the cold light, I live, to love and adore you It's all that I am, it's all that I have In the cold light, I live, I only live for you It's all that I am, it's all that I have [Verse 2: Baaba Maal] To feel hurt and to feel joy Feelings that come from loving you, Situations can change, between the morning and the night But our love for each other stays the same, It stays strong; It is constant and it remains true [Verse 3: Mumford & Sons] So open up my eyes to a new light I wandered 'round your darkened land all night But I lift up my eyes to a new high And indeed there will be time [Chorus: Mumford & Sons] But in the cold light, I live to love and adore you It's all that I am, it's all that I have In the cold light, I live, I'll only live for you It's all that I am, it's all that I have [Chorus 2: Mumford & Sons] And in the cold light, I live, To love and adore you, It's all that I am, it's all that I have And in the cold light, I live, I'll only live for you, It's all that I am, it's all that I have Why do I keep falling? Why do I keep falling? [Bridge: Baaba Maal] There is a time, a time to love, A time to sing, a time to shine, A time to stay, a time to go There is a time, a time to cry, A time to love, a time to live, There is a time, a time to sing, A time to love [Chorus 2: Mumford & Sons] And in the cold light, I live to love and adore you It's all that I am, it's all that I have And in the cold light, I live to love and adore you It's all that I am, it's all that I have Why do I keep falling? Why do I keep falling?
