Kat Frankie - Please Don't Give Me What I Want lyrics

Oh love, how long? Love, how long?
How long? Oh love, how long?
Love, how long? How long?

Oh please, don't give me what I want
And protect me from the quake to come
My dear, I know the hounds are near
Oh, I'm fickle as a pendulum
I trembled in the winter pale
Wrecked to the depths of my wickedness
And breathless, luckless, though I am
The heart of a lion inside the lamb

Won't you come for me across the line
And hold my heart? If only, only, only, only

Please don't give me what I want
And forsake my basest whim
There come for our embrace by night
And I'm harboring my sin
Darling, you know I'm afraid of leaving
Morning's light bears the cross I stood
And I wish I was good

If only, only, only, only i could

Won't you come for me across the line
And hold my heart? If only, only, only, only
