Old Ceremony Songtext
von Matthew and the Atlas

And when the winter drifted in
I was not expecting
You to hold on for so long
You to hold on for so long
The day the white deer died
The snow turned red as wine
I know how hard we tried
I know how hard we tried


And on that day you came to me
Flowers woven in your hair
Felt the ocean on your skin
The promise it would bring
′Cause I remember you
And you remembered me
We'll feel this way again
We′ll feel this way again

It's just an old ceremony
A game
It's just an old ceremony

And now we′re filled with hope again
Yes, we′re filled with hope again
I whispered in your ear
Like you whispered into mine
I'll be here when we′re old
When our story's almost told
And all those dreams we′ve made
Will slowly start to fade

It's just an old ceremony
Fading
It′s just an old ceremony
