Leap Year Lyrics – Billie Marten

Read the full Leap Year lyrics by Billie Marten along with the music video, song credits, release information and other details about the song.

There’s nothing below us anymore
A carpet of clouds and the sky’s the floor
I’ve seen faces love and lose it all
A gambling train, it’s criminal

Our love is like a rose
It blooms and then it goes
A pocketful of gold
An eyelash on the nose

I could’ve loved you
But the day’s already gone
I could’ve held you
But the sun‘s already shone
I could’ve kept you
Would you stay longer than a leap year,
If I fall asleep here?

I carve the time away in my ivory hall
I sing my songs and I climb the walls
The clock is ticking murder at me now
A solitude, insufferable

Our love is like an ache
It keeps you lain awake
Four turns around the sun
I’d walk a mile to run

I could’ve loved you
But the day’s already past
I could’ve seen you shine
But the moon just didn’t last
I could’ve held you
Would you stay longer than a leap year,
If I fall asleep here?
