Laughter Lines Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Flyawayfree 

Cover art for Laughter Lines lyrics by Bastille

I think Dan Smith may have read the book, "And the mountains Echoed" as it relates the same sense of that tale. It also seems like Dan's style to write a song about a story that moves him.

Check out the book... it's as heartwrenching as the song..... see if you think it's possible like I do.

@Flyawayfree I agree with you 100% on this. The song had to have been inspired by the book. The mood and melancholic nostalgia and the tree can't be coincidence.
