What He Wrote (Live)-Laura Marling

[00:17.12]He cut out my tongue, there is nothing to say, [00:24.00]Love me, oh Lord, he threw me away, [00:29.56]He laughed at my sins, in his arms I must stay. [00:37.11]He wrote: 'I'm broke, please send for me.' [00:45.02] [00:47.70]But I'm broke in two, and spoken for, do not tempt me. [00:57.91]Her skin is white, and I'm light as the sun, [01:02.54]So holy light shines on the things you have done. [01:07.41] [01:09.94]So I asked him, how he became this man? [01:14.58]How did he learn to hold fruit in his hands? [01:19.21]And where is the lamb that gave you your name? [01:24.46]He had to leave, though I begged him to stay. [01:28.59] [01:31.02]Left me alone, when I needed the light, [01:35.58]Fell to my knees, and I wept for my life, [01:39.58] [01:40.71]If he had of stayed, you might understand, [01:45.21]If he had of stayed, you never would have taken my hand. [01:50.52] [01:52.83]He wrote: 'I'm low, please send for me.' [01:58.75] [02:03.05]But I'm broke in two, and spoken for, do not tempt me. [02:10.39] [02:12.88]And where is the lamb that gave you your name? [02:16.82] [02:17.82]He had to leave, though I begged him to stay. [02:20.82] [02:24.00]Begged him to stay, in my cold wooden grip, [02:28.82]Begged him to stay by the light of this ship. [02:33.63]Me fighting him, fighting life, fighting dawn, [02:38.18]And the waves came and stole him and took him to war. [02:43.08] [02:45.23]He wrote: 'I'm broke, please send for me.' [02:53.46] [02:55.32]But I'm broke in two, and spoken for, do not tempt me. [03:02.14] [03:04.83]Forgive me, Hera, I cannot stay, [03:10.14]He cut out my tongue, there is nothing to say, [03:16.64]Love me, oh Lord, he threw me away, [03:20.14] [03:21.20]He laughed at my sins, in his arms I must stay. [03:26.52] [03:28.96]We write, that's alright, I miss his smell. [03:35.58] [03:39.33]We speak, when spoken to, that suits us well. [03:48.14] [03:50.02]That suits us well. [03:51.96] [03:55.58]That suits me well.
