All We Ever Knew Lyrics

When I wake up in the morning
I see nothing
For miles and miles and miles
When I sleep in the evening, oh lord
There she goes, only in dreams
She's only in dreams
Well, well my love
We've been here before
Don't drag me through this again
We tried everything under the sun

Now I'm trying to wake up from this
I'm trying to make up for it

All we ever do is all we ever knew
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la

You don't see why you would there's no love to give
Well what goes around comes around
I know sometimes you get so caught in a dream
But now it's time to wake up from this
It's time to make up for it

It's time to wake up from this
Yes it's time to wake up from this
It's time to make up for it

All we ever do (all we ever do) is all we ever knew
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la

I'm feeling low, feeling high
Feeling down, why isn't this enough?
I'm feeling low, feeling high
Feeling down, why isn't this enough?

All we ever do is all we ever knew
All we ever do is all we ever knew
It's time to wake up from this
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la

Lyrics provided by LyricsEver.com
The Head and the Heart is a folk band which formed in 2009 in Seattle, Washington, United States. The band consists of Josiah Johnson (vocals, guitar), Jonathan Russell (vocals, guitar), Charity Rose Thielen (violin, vocals), Chris Zasche (bass), Kenny Hensley (keyboards) and Tyler Williams (drums).

Composed primarily of transplants to the Seattle area, The Head and the Heart write and play songs that speak to the newness of a fresh start, of the ghosts left behind, of moving forward, all brimming with a soulfulness and hope for a better life than the one we've all been sold.

Stylistically, think a folksy Beatles or The Avett Brothers with a little extra oomph. Catchy piano melodies stand side by side with a tight trio of harmonies, and solid minimalist drums, groovin' bass, and plenty of hand percussion and foot stomps make the live show inspiring and really goddamn fun.

After the band self-released its eponymous debut album in June 2010, the emblematic Seattle label Sub Pop re-released the album. For the Sub Pop version, the song “Sounds like Hallelujah” has been re-recorded, live favorite “Rivers and Roads” has been added, and the album has been re-mastered. Read more on Last.fm.
