  • Would That I
    True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
    A willow dancing on air before covering me
    Under cotton and calicos over canopy dapple long ago
    True that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me
    That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
    Must be felled for to fight the cold
    I fretted fire but that was long ago
    And it's not tonight, where I'm set alight
    And I blink in sight of your blinding light
    It's not tonight, where you hold me tight
    All the fire bright, let it blaze, alright
    Ah, but you're good to me baby
    With the roar of the fire my heart rose to its feet
    Like the ashes of ash I saw rise in the heat
    Settle soft and as pure as snow
    I fell in love with the fire long ago
    With each love I cut loose I was never the same
    Watching still living roots be consumed by the flame
    I was fixed on your hand of gold
    Laying waste to my lovin' long ago
    But that's not tonight, where I'm set alight
    And I blink in sight of your blinding light
    And it's not tonight, where you hold me tight
    And the fire bright, let it blaze, alright, honey
    Oh, but you're good to me
    Oh, you're good to me
    Oh, you're good to me, baby
    So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
    Though I've handled the wood I still worship the flame
    A long as amber of ember glows
    All the would that I loved is long ago …

    What's wrong with a still crowd? If I was there, I would also be standing still, probably holding tears back. Hozier's songs make me feel like I'm under a thunderstorm, it's very immersive. Every pluck and strum of the guitar like raindrops, the percussion like every part of nature singing along, and his voice carrying ours, expressing the very essence of joy, relief, worry, and excitement under the refreshing rain and the frightening boom of thunder.

    True that I saw her hair like
    The branch of a tree
    Willow dancin' on air before covering me
    Under garden and calicos
    Over canopy dabbled long ago
    True that love in withdrawal
    Was the weepin' of me
    That the sound of the
    Saw must be known by the tree
    Must be felt 'fore the fight, the call
    Friendly fire, but that was long ago
    But that's not tonight (Oh, oh)
    When I'm set alight (Oh, oh)
    And I blink inside (Oh, oh)
    Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
    Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)
    When you hold me tight (Oh, oh)
    All the fire bright (Oh, oh)
    Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)
    Oh, hope that you're good to me
    Oh, you're good to me (Oh, oh)
    Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
    With the war of the fire
    My heart moves to its feet
    Like the ashes of ash
    I saw eyes in the heat
    Feel it soft and as pure as snow
    Fell in love with the fire long ago
    With each love I could lose
    I was never the same
    Watch it still live in roofs
    Be consumed by the flame
    I was fixed on your hand of gold
    Lay in waste of my lovin' long ago
    That's not tonight (Oh, oh)
    I'm set alight (Oh, oh)
    And I blink inside (Oh, oh)
    Your blinding light (Oh, oh)
    Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)
    You hold me tight (Oh, oh)
    All the fire bright (Oh, oh)
    Oh, let it blaze alright, honey (Oh, oh)
    Oh, hope that you're good to me
    Oh, you're good to me (Oh, oh)
    Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
    So in awe there I stood as you
    Licked off the grain
    Though I've handled the wood
    I still worship the flame
    Long as amber of ember glows
    All the wood that I'd loved is long ago
    And it's not tonight (Oh, oh)
    When I'm set alight (Oh, oh)
    And I blink inside (Oh, oh)
    Oh, your blinding light (Oh, oh)
    Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)

    Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)
    Hope you're good to me
    Hope you're good to me (Oh, oh)
    Hope that you're good to me
    Baby (Oh, oh)
    Oh, oh, you're good to me
    You're good to me (Oh, oh)
    Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
