[Intro]
Oh
Oh
Oh, oh
Oh

[Verse 1]
We'll make our agreements about when to meet
And I'll leave you in the doorway
The cold evening aches as it leaves in its wake
All the memories left by the day
Oh, I'm questioning why as you look to the sky
That is cloudless up above our heads
And thoughts come to mind, how our short little lives
Haven't left the path that they will tread
They will tread...

[Chorus]
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you

[Refrain]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Verse 2]
Will wisdom we learn as our minds, they do burn
All the ties to naivety and youth
As adults, we'll grow and maturity shows
Oh, the terrifying rarity of truth
As you turn to your mind and your thoughts, they rewind
To old happenings and things that are done
You can't find what's past, make that happiness last
Seeing from those eyes what you've become
What you've become...

[Chorus]
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you

[Breakdown]
I will see you there
See you there
See you there
I will see you there
See you there
Oh, see you there

[Outro]
I'll come back to haunt you
Memories will taunt you
And I will try to love you
It's not like I'm above you

Bastille

Bastille is a British indie pop band. After releasing a limited single in 2010 and the Laura Palmer EP in 2011, the band was signed to Virgin Records. Following their signing, the band released two mix-tapes – Other People’s Heartache and Other People’s Heartache Pt. 2 — for free. In an interview with The Guardian, Dan Smith discussed the

Someone recently said to ‘The mixtapes were very clever, was that the label’s idea?’ Actually the label were completely against it; we were stealing and sampling illegally left, right and centre. The label ‘We want nothing to do with this.’ When it came to hosting the mixtapes, I had to register the website myself.

Preceding the release of their debut album, Bad Blood, the band released several singles — “Overjoyed”, “Bad Blood” and “Flaws”— to moderate commercial success. In February 2013, the band was catapulted into the charts by the album’s fourth single, “Pompeii”. The song was a commercial hit, going up to 5x Platinum around the world. In June 2014, “Pompeii” was confirmed to be the United Kingdom’s most streamed song ever. Unfortunately, it has since been overtaken.
