[Laura Marling - What He Wrote lyrics]
Forgive me, Hera i cannot stay
He cut out my tongue
There is nothing to save love me, oh Lord
He threw me away he laughed at my sins
In his arms, I must stay
He wrote i am broke
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
Her skin is white and I'm light as the sun
So holy light shines
On the things you have done
So I asked him how he became this man
How did he learn to hold fruit in his hands?
And where is the lamb that
Gave you your name?
He had to leave, though I begged him to stay
Left me alone when I needed the light
Fell to my knees and I wept for my life
If he had've stayed, you might understand
If he had've stayed
You never would have taken my hand
He wrote i'm low
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
And where is the lamb that
Gave you your name?
He had to leave, though I begged him to stay
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
Begged him to stay by the light of this ship
Me fighting him, fighting light
Fighting dawn
And the waves came and stole him
And took him to war
He wrote i'm broke
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
Forgive me, Hera i cannot stay
Cut out my tongue there is nothing to save
Love me, oh Lord he threw me away
He laughed at my sins
In his arms, I must stay
We write that's alright
I miss his smell we speak when spoken to
And that suit's us well that suit's us well
That suit's me well
He cut out my tongue
There is nothing to save love me, oh Lord
He threw me away he laughed at my sins
In his arms, I must stay
He wrote i am broke
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
Her skin is white and I'm light as the sun
So holy light shines
On the things you have done
So I asked him how he became this man
How did he learn to hold fruit in his hands?
And where is the lamb that
Gave you your name?
He had to leave, though I begged him to stay
Left me alone when I needed the light
Fell to my knees and I wept for my life
If he had've stayed, you might understand
If he had've stayed
You never would have taken my hand
He wrote i'm low
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
And where is the lamb that
Gave you your name?
He had to leave, though I begged him to stay
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
Begged him to stay by the light of this ship
Me fighting him, fighting light
Fighting dawn
And the waves came and stole him
And took him to war
He wrote i'm broke
Please send for me but, I am broken too
And spoken for do not tempt me
Forgive me, Hera i cannot stay
Cut out my tongue there is nothing to save
Love me, oh Lord he threw me away
He laughed at my sins
In his arms, I must stay
We write that's alright
I miss his smell we speak when spoken to
And that suit's us well that suit's us well
That suit's me well
