Mumford & Sons at The Ryman Update: Part II

Potential lyrics to the new song sent from my awesome source:

Where are you now, where are you now
Do you ever think of me in the quiet, in the crowd? 

On an unrelated note, Marcus just admitted that he got sick backstage and asked the crowd to sing “The Cave” for him.

…the song is a stunner, rolling along on a rail of acoustic guitar, banjo and accordion… There’s a hushed majesty to it all, a muted sense of despair and grace, and it finds them building on their Bluegrass roots.

Mumford & Sons perform stunning new song “Ghosts That We Knew,” with beautiful fiddle solo by Ross Holmes, live at Montreal’s Bell Centre on October 27, 2011.

Potential lyrics from this video (they’ve already changed since the previous performance):

You saw my pain washed out in the rain
Broken glass saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault, no cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart 

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we’ll live a long life

So give me hope in the darkness and I will see the light
‘cause, oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold you as long as you like
Just promise we will be alright. 

So lead me back, turned down from that place
And close my eyes to my recent disgrace
‘cause you know my call and will share my all
And our children come and they will hear me [?]

So give me hope in the darkness and I will see the light
‘cause, oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold you as long as you like
Just promise we will be alright. 

And hold me still, bury my heart on the [coals?]
And hold me still, bury my heart on the [coals?]

 So give me hope in the darkness and I will see the light
‘cause, oh, they gave me such a fright
And I will hold on as long as you like
Just promise we will be alright 

The ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we’ll live a long life

The ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we’ll live a long life

Do you happen to have the lyrics for "Ghost" as of yet?

- Asked by bonoism

Hey, there!  Thanks for your question!

Well, seeing as they only performed it for the first time ever less than 24 hours ago, there are only two videos of the song currently available.  I’ve only heard it a handful of times, so this is the best I can do for now (and this may not even be accurate):

So give me hope in the darkness and I will see the light
‘cause, oh, they gave me such a fright
and I will hold you as long as you like
just promise we will be alright.

But the most recent video I posted has fairly good audio, so you might be able to decipher more lyrics by having a listen yourself. :)

Mumford & Sons perform sublime new song “Ghosts That We Knew” at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre on October 25, 2011.  Best audio available thus far.

Some potential lyrics:

So give me hope in the darkness and I will see the light
‘cause, oh, they gave me such a fright
and I will hold you as long as you like
just promise we will be alright.

BRAND NEW MUMFORD & SONS SONG ALERT!

Mumford and Sons perform a completely brand new, gorgeous, untitled song for the first time as part of their encore at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on October 25, 2011.

EDIT - Someone who went to the concert says that this song is apparently being called “Ghosts That We Knew.”

Mumford and Sons perform a modified “Nothing is Written” at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto.  Actually, it seems no title was given, so perhaps I should refer to it in its changed state as “Untitled.”  Either way, it’s incredible.
