Unfinished Business Lyrics - Mumford & Sons

Just give me a second, darling, to clear my head. 

Just put down those scissors, baby, 

On the single bed. 

The sand in the hour glass is running low, 

I came through thunder, the cold wind, the rain and the snow, 

To find you awake by your window sill, 

A sight for sore eyes, and a view to kill. 

I broke down in horror at you standing there, 

The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair. 

I shouted with passion "I love you so much", 

But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch. 

You whispered "Where are you?", 

I questioned your doubt, 

But soon realized you were talking to God now.

But you've got blood your hands and I know it's mine, 

I just need more time. 

So get off your low, let's dance like we used to. 

And there's a light in the distance, waiting for me, 

I will wait for you. 

So get off your low, let's kiss like we used to. 

I looked in the mirror, but something was wrong. 

I saw you behind, but my reflection was gone. 

There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow. 

A voice beckoned gently "Now it's time to go". 

A requiem played as you begged for forgiveness. 

"Don't touch me!" I screamed, 

"I've got unfinished business." 

But you've got blood your hands and I know it's mine, 

I just need more time. 

So get off your low, let's dance like we used to. 

And there's a light in the distance, waiting for me, 

I will wait for you. 

So get off your low, let's kiss like we used to.

And there's a light in the distance, waiting for me, 

I will wait for you. 

So get off your low, let's kiss like we used to.
