[00:00.47]England (Live from Maynard’s Living Room) - Ed Sheeran
[00:02.24]Composed by:Aaron Dessner/Ed Sheeran
[00:07.68]It is opening day and a brand new start
[00:11.63]The stones have been cleared around the fisherman's hut
[00:15.48]And the air bites then leaves almost invisible cuts
[00:18.85]On the skin
[00:23.14]A lighthouse retired but a new one was hired
[00:26.78]About 20 foot taller painted in black and white
[00:30.48]Twenty million steps with a computer inside
[00:33.82]Instead of him
[00:37.85]Only one road sign
[00:41.50]Telling cars to slow down
[00:45.20]And a long drop in the ocean
[00:52.60]Beware of the rip tide
[00:56.35]Broken glass and train lines
[01:00.03]It's a new day and this is England
[01:07.12]Next to the pub with the flag that's working flexible hours
[01:10.92]There's a mismatch of carriages soil in a boat for some flowers
[01:14.60]Fairy lights on a building that's supplying us power
[01:18.03]From the sea
[01:21.95]Electricity lines flow like veins to the town
[01:25.64]In between there is nothing but grass and pebbles on the ground
[01:29.31]Do not enter the wild here if you want to be found
[01:32.63]For the free
[01:36.57]View the flame of sunrise
[01:40.06]Cut in half by the sky
[01:43.61]And the empty of the desert
[01:50.79]Team of birds that swerve by
[01:54.42]And then land on the wires
[01:58.14]It's a new day and this is England
[02:05.18]When it's time to escape from the heavy of this
[02:08.81]There is nothing like washing away
[02:12.18]I find this country of mine gets a bad reputation
[02:16.31]Of being cold and grey
[02:19.34]But on the coast of the south to the east followed round
[02:22.99]I find serenity I've never felt
[02:26.58]There's a peace and a quiet in this island of ours
[02:30.13]That can't be mirrored by anywhere else
[02:35.79]Homes protruding from stones with their wood coloured black
[02:39.53]Scattered cars in a line steam rising out the shack
[02:43.15]One door at the front and then just glass out the back
[02:46.49]For the view
[02:50.27]And the blue is so bright
[02:53.96]You need shades for your eyes
[02:57.40]And a cable to pull over
[03:04.72]Take a walk and feel like
[03:08.53]Everything will be fine
[03:12.03]It's a new day and this is England
