Laura Marling - I Speak Because I Can lyrics

rate me

My husband left me last night

Left me a poor and lonely wife

I cooked the meals and he got the life

And now I'm just out for the rest of my time

for me

for he

for my.

I speak because I can

to anyone I trust enough to listen.

You speak because you can

To anyone who'll hear what you say.

I swear it was not my choice

I used to be so kind.

Never rode my bike down to the sea

Never finished that letter I was writing.

Never got up and shared anything

for me

for he

for my.

Oh graceful sleeper

Midnight dreamer

I'm floored by your sound.

I'm floored by your sound.

I swear it was not my choice.

To reach out for someone wise.

I used to be so kind.

I used to be so kind.

In the breaking of the morning you'll be dancing on the soft lawn

You'll be sinking at the anchor that stopped you from taking my gold

You'll be running up the highway singing

"I'm the king the king of you all!"

When you look back to where you started I'll be there waving you on.

I never road my bike down to the sea

Never quite figured out what I believe

Never got up and shared anything

For me

For he

For my.
