Laura Marling - Goodbye England lyrics

rate me

<br>You were so smart then in your jacket and coat

<br>My softest red scarf was warming your throat

<br>Winter was on us at the end of my nose

<br>But I never love England

<br>More than when covered in snow

<br>

<br>But a friend of mine says it´s good to hear

<br>That you believe in love even if set in fear

<br>well I´ll hold you there brother and set you straight

<br>I wont make believe that love is frail

<br>And willing to break

<br>

<br>I will come back here bring me back when I´m old

<br>I want to lay here forever in the cold.

<br>I might be cold but I´m just skin and bones

<br>And I never love England

<br>More than when covered in snow

<br>

<br>I wrote my name in your book only god knows where

<br>And I bet you that he cracked a smile

<br>And I´m clearing all the crap out of my room

<br>trying desperately to figure out

<br>What it is that makes me blue

<br>and I wrote in a big letter to you

<br>And it´s 22 pages front and back

<br>And it´s too good to be used

<br>and I tried to be a girl who likes to be used

<br>I´m too good for that

<br>There´s a mind under this hat and I

<br>Called them all and told them i´ve got to move

<br>

<br>I´m out man... it´s too hard

<br>

<br>Feel like running feel like running

<br>Running off.

<br>And we will keep you

<br>we will keep you little one

<br>Safe from harm like an extra arm

<br>You are part of us.

<br>

<br>You were so smart then in your jacket and coat

<br>and my softest red scarf was warming your throat

<br>Winter will leave us left the end of my nose

<br>So goodbye old England ´till next years snow<br><!-- stopprint -->
