"The Chase" lyrics - FUTURE ISLANDS

FUTURE ISLANDS
"The Chase"

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

[Chorus 1:]
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

[Chorus 2:]
Is this lover?
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?

[Bridge:]
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
And 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?

[Chorus 3:]
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?
