Laura Marling - Blackberry Stone lyrics

rate me

Well I, own this field

And I wrote this sky

And I have no reason to reason with you

I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you were lowered,

but I'd understand that I'd never let it go

I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you were lowered,

but I'd understand that the world does what it does

And you never did learn to let the little things go

And you never did learn to let me be

And you never did learn to let little people grow

And you never did learn how to see

But I whisper that I love this man,

now and for forever to your soul as it floats out off the window

To the world that you turned your back on,

To the world that never really let you be,

And I am lower now, and lower still,

And you did always say that one day I would suffer.

You did always say that people get their pay.

You did always say that I was going places,

And that you wouldn't have it any other way.

But I couldn't turn my back on a world, for what I like wouldn't let me

But I couldn't turn my back on a world for what I lack I needed

And I shouldn't turn my back on sweet smelling Blackberry stone
