The Civil Wars - Eavesdrop

It's 2019 and I'm STILL SAD that they are not making music together anymore. I always dreamed of seeing them live one day...

When he starts his verse with "I can't pull you closer than this..." I felt that. Why did they have to break up?? Why??? :'(

This is everything right now!!!! ❤️

Ariana Grande commercial before this played. Dream on Vevo. This is real talent.

“Just you and the moon on my skin...”

I miss them. They made amazing music. It makes me so sad to know that I will never hear another new civil wars song. Every time I come back to their music I'm in love all over again ❤️

My favorite

I know you do its illegal

I will forever miss this band 💔💜

Amazing ❤

Such an emotion lyric and the melody, really love this song

I'm fucked, again.

FeatherBlack no you're not

My favorite song on this album. Very underrated.

żałuję, że nie zaśpiewali wszystkich piosenek na żywo :( Taka wielka strata...):

Dust To DustTu es poussière et tu retourneras en poussière It’s not your eyesIt’s not what you sayIt’s not your laughter that gives you awayYou’re just lonelyYou’ve been lonely, too longCe n'est pas tes yeuxCe n'est pas ce que tu as ditCe n'est pas ton rire qui t'a trahiTu es juste seulTu as été seul, depuis trop longtempsAll your actin’Your thin disguiseAll your perfectly delivered liesThey don’t fool meYou’ve been lonely, too longTout ton petit jeuTon déguisement consciencieusement penséTa façon de mentir comme tu respiresTu ne peux pas me mentirTu as été seul, depuis trop longtempsLet me in the wall, you’ve built aroundAnd we can light a match and burn it downLet me hold your hand and dance ’round and ’round the flameIn front of usDust toLaisse-moi dans le mur, que tu as construit autourEt on peut allumer une allumette puis la brûlerLaisse-moi te donner la main et danser autour, et autour de la flammeDevant nousTu es poussièreYou’ve held your head upYou’ve fought the fightYou bear the scarsYou’ve done your timeListen to me-You’ve been lonely, too longTu as gardé la tête hauteTu as luttéTu as porté les stigmatesTu as fais ton tempsEcoute-moiTu es seul depuis trop longtempsLet me in the wall, you’ve built aroundAnd we can light a match and burn it downLet me hold your hand and dance ’round and ’round the flameIn front of usDust to dustLaisse-moi dans le mur, que tu as construit autourEt on peut allumer une allumette puis la brûlerLaisse-moi te donner la main et danser autour, et autour de la flammeDevant nousTu es poussière et tu retourneras en poussièreYou’re like a mirror, reflecting meTakes one to know one, so take it from meYou’ve been lonelyYou’ve been lonely, too longWe’ve been lonelyWe’ve been lonely, too longTu es comme un miroir, qui me reflètePrends-en un pour le connaitre, prends le mienTu as été seulTu as été seul, depuis trop longtempsNous avons été seulsNous avons été seuls, depuis trop longtemps

Hopefully JP and Joy will get back together to create music when their kids are a few years older. I respect both of them, especially JP, for walking away from fame and money to be there for their families.

I hope so!

I'm addicted to the hauntingly deep longing in their vocals. Always leaves me wanting more...

I don’t want to talk right nowI just want your arms wrapped aroundMe in this momentBefore it runs outOh don’t say that it’s overOh no say it ain’t soLet’s let the stars watch Let them stareLet the wind eavesdropI don’t careFor all that we’ve got, don’t let goJust hold meI can’t pull you closer than thisIt’s just you and the moon on my skinOh who says it ever has to endOh don’t say that it’s overOh no say it ain’t soLet’s let the stars watch Let them stareLet the wind eavesdropI don’t careFor all that we’ve got, don’t let go Just hold meLet’s let the stars watch Let them stareLet the wind eavesdropI don’t careFor all that we’ve got, don’t let goJust hold meJust hold meJust hold meJust hold meJust hold me

Heartbroken that I'll never be able to see them live

my fav on this album is  "the Devil's Backbone" Joy did this, awesome......

its a tragedy they had to part..they were always there for me during my most intense break ups. i wish theyd fall back in love again..

My 2 favorite sets of lyrics from this song:Let's let the stars watch, let them stareLet the wind eavesdrop, I don't careFor all that we've got, don't let goJust hold meI can't pull you closer than thisIt's just you and the moon on my skin(how can you not fall in love with them with lyrics like these)

I miss them.

The guitar part after the first chorus sounds like 'See You Soon' by Coldplay.

i'm really sad that i'll never hear a live version of this.

This. This. ;(

+stoleyourmateria not just this one :(

It's songs like this that make me fall deeper in love with this band, I hope they resolve their issues and continue to make beautiful music together soon!

"Oh, don't say that it's overOh, no, say it ain't so"I'm so sad they've ended the partnership for good. :(

One of my favorites of them <3 

This may sound weird, but I find this song so intimate, romantic, enthralling, calming, erotic, sultry, sexy, honest, secure, raw, respectful, loyal, truthful, intriguing, sacred... Like a beautiful revealing nakedness that is so precious, yet entirely respectful and sacred. Like my view of marriage.

this is the best comment on any song ever.

Oh please, do share it. It's beautiful for men and women alike to think and feel like this song.

My mom got married to this song

Ageee 100%. Beautiful

I can’t pull you closer than this.

seriously this need more views. this kind of music should be on the top rather than those shi*tty crappy ones

one of my favorites 

They're not married but their voices sure are!! <3

Nicely said!

Was about to like this comment but just realised I already liked it a few years ago

I just discovered an AMAZING band, omg i love all these incredible songs, why have i never heard of the civil wars before?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? 

This is literally the only country band I have listened to and actually like songs. Well done Civil Wars, well done. (she says as she slowly claps her hands and has a smug look on her face)

Blazingsun228 it’s more like blue grassy to me

Their videos deserve so many more views, they are so talented!!!

Always beautiful

sooooo beautiful <3, their music always takes my breath away it's just so powerful !

Their music makes me feel human.

kloeloveee Well I mean, you are

I'm not sure what it is about this track that makes it one of my favorites off the album. It is slightly haunting and incredibly evocative. I love the tenseness of the melody, and the lyrics, as always, are wonderful. Hopefully their problems will diminish and Joy and John Paul will be able to write together again. Individually they are gifted, and together their talent is such that shouldn't be held back. I wish them the best.

That was perfectly put.They do have responsibilities to other people than us...If they can work it out, and be back in operation, so much the better.If not, well, it just makes what we got from them while we could all the more precious for its rarity.
