Laura Marling - Night After Night

My darling I loved you
I long to become you
I know what it is that you gave
We dance the sorrow forgive me tomorrow
And I pray night after night
and day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
And my mind drift away
Dear lover forsaken our love is taken away
Oh you were my speaker
my innocence keeper
I don't night after night day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away
Dear lover forgiven
my love is driven by rage
Oh I should just leave
you instead I've deceived you
But I don't night after night day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away
I count no one hold nobody's ear
I sold you my hand once
and you hit me in fear
I don't stand for the devil
I don't whisper in ears
I stand on the mountains
and call people to hear
The sudden bursts of light
it's a fate foretold
It is knowing it is knowing
He longs for the answers as all of us must
He longs for the woman
who will conquer his lust
He screams in the night I scream in the day
He weeps in the evening
and lie naked and prays
Night after night day after day
Night after night day after day
Night after night day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away
It's a tempting communion
It's a fate foretold
It is knowing it is knowing
What it is that you're told
