Laura Marling - Fortune lyrics
[Laura Marling - Fortune lyrics]
You took out that money that
Your momma had saved
She told me she kept it for running away
Oh my, fortunes can change
You've picked up some tricks that you
Learnt on your way
For fear you'd be lonely if you never change
Oh my, you lost your faith
We landed on rocks and that's partly to blame
We wandered the landscape in
This unbearable pain
Oh my, your fortune can change
At least we agree that we've wasted our time
We'll give up the hope that
We'll meet down the line
Better off measured in coffee and wine
I think on it fondly now
The truth can be told
Some love is ancient and it
Lives on in your soul
A fortune that never grows old
You spent all that money that
Your momma had saved
Told me she kept it for running away
Never quite found the right way to say
"I'm sorry, my darling, my mind
It has been changed
Release me from this unbearable pain"
And so ends a story I had hoped to change
I had to release us from this unbearable pain
And promise we won't come here again
Your momma had saved
She told me she kept it for running away
Oh my, fortunes can change
You've picked up some tricks that you
Learnt on your way
For fear you'd be lonely if you never change
Oh my, you lost your faith
We landed on rocks and that's partly to blame
We wandered the landscape in
This unbearable pain
Oh my, your fortune can change
At least we agree that we've wasted our time
We'll give up the hope that
We'll meet down the line
Better off measured in coffee and wine
I think on it fondly now
The truth can be told
Some love is ancient and it
Lives on in your soul
A fortune that never grows old
You spent all that money that
Your momma had saved
Told me she kept it for running away
Never quite found the right way to say
"I'm sorry, my darling, my mind
It has been changed
Release me from this unbearable pain"
And so ends a story I had hoped to change
I had to release us from this unbearable pain
And promise we won't come here again
