Alice Merton - Ignorance is Bliss

 Alice Merton - Ignorance is Bliss

Oh, oh, oh, oh
As I drew your name on the water
Oh I threw my heart in the sand 
If you saw what hides in the shadows 
Would you try and understand? 

Why do you stand there like a sculpture? 
My hopes drown in the ocean. 
Breaks me when I look into your eyes 

If ignorance is bliss 
And all I get is this 
Then I’m standing here 
Right now, where I wanna be 
The devil’s in the kiss 
If this is all it is 
At least I got you right here where I wanna be
Oh, oh, oh, oh

So I drew your name on the water
And I threw my heart in the sand
If you saw what hides in the shadows 
Would you try and understand? 

Why do you stand there like a sculpture? 
My hopes drown in the ocean. 
Breaks me when I look into your eyes 

If ignorance is bliss 
And all I get is this 
Then I’m standing here
Right now, where I wanna be 
The devil’s in the kiss 
If this is all it is 
At least I got you right here where I wanna be
Oh, oh, oh, oh

If ignorance is bliss 
And all I get is this 
Then I’m standing here 
Right now, where I wanna be 
The devil’s in the kiss 
If this is all it is 
At least I got you right here where I wanna be

Oooh oh ohh oh 
Oooh ooh oh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

The stakes are what it is 
You'll be my greatest wish 
The devil's in the kiss 
The stakes are what it is 
You'll be my greatest wish 
The devil's in the kiss
