The Chase - Future Islands

Written by：William Cashion/Gerrit Welmers

I take my licks

Like a man

Facing forward

I made my bed it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget

What we shared

You said you'd always be mine

I nodded and smiled

Tongue out of my head

Is this love

Or the love of the chase

Is this love

Is this love

Or the love of the chase

Tell me now is it love

We did the best that we can

Across the world

We made a plan it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget

What we shared

In folding sands

Our castle no more

The magic

Sleight of hand

Is this love

Or the love of the chase

I had you once you kept forgetting my name

Is this love

Or the love of the chase

What was your name

Was it something like me me me

We recede in the fog

As to breathe in this calm

And forget this walk

To leave you and all

We were more than the fall

I hope you'd agree

Like sunlight through the fog

Always chasing me

Lil bluebell in shade

What was your name

Was it something like me

Lil bluebell in shade

What was your name

Was it something like me me me

Now is it love or the love of the chase

Is it love

Is it love or the love of the chase

Is this love
