Laura Marling - Salinas lyrics
[Laura Marling - Salinas lyrics]
I am from Salinas where the women go forever
And they never ever stop to ask why
My mother was a saviour of
Six foot of bad behaviour
With long blonde curly hair
Down to her thighs
Oh my mother oh my friends
Ask the angels will I ever see heaven again?
Late into the evening they would
Take each other screaming
Lookin darkly to the back of her eye
A careless beast was bleating that
The air behind was breathing
That they mustn't ever look up to the sky
There no answers there are found
Ask the angels am I heaven bound?
Put it down to me i, who speak awkwardly
Any word if it is heard is not intended to be
Not for him not for her
And not for them and not for me
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
When the clouds roll in
We start to pay for our sins
With a gun in my hand and
My son at my shoulder
Believe I will run before that boy gets older
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
I am from Salinas where the women go forever
And they never ever stop to ask why
Oh, my mother
She's a saviour of six foot of bad behaviour
With long dark curly hair down to her thighs
Oh my mother oh My friends
Ask the angels will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?
Punish them all for they speak too much
Hate the world for what it did to us
But will I ever see heaven again?
And they never ever stop to ask why
My mother was a saviour of
Six foot of bad behaviour
With long blonde curly hair
Down to her thighs
Oh my mother oh my friends
Ask the angels will I ever see heaven again?
Late into the evening they would
Take each other screaming
Lookin darkly to the back of her eye
A careless beast was bleating that
The air behind was breathing
That they mustn't ever look up to the sky
There no answers there are found
Ask the angels am I heaven bound?
Put it down to me i, who speak awkwardly
Any word if it is heard is not intended to be
Not for him not for her
And not for them and not for me
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
When the clouds roll in
We start to pay for our sins
With a gun in my hand and
My son at my shoulder
Believe I will run before that boy gets older
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
Oh and that gun will turn before
The sun starts to burn understand
I am from Salinas where the women go forever
And they never ever stop to ask why
Oh, my mother
She's a saviour of six foot of bad behaviour
With long dark curly hair down to her thighs
Oh my mother oh My friends
Ask the angels will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?
Punish them all for they speak too much
Hate the world for what it did to us
But will I ever see heaven again?
