My darling, I loved you I long to become you And know what it is that you gave We dance the sorrow Forgive me tomorrow And I pray night after night and day after day Would you watch my body weaken And my mind drift away? Dear lover forsaken, our love is taken away You were my speaker, my innocence-keeper I don't night after night, day after day Would you watch my body weaken, My mind drift away? Dear lover forgiven, my love is driven by rage Oh I should just leave you, instead I've deceived you But I don't Night after night, day after day Would you watch my body weaken and mind drift away? I count no one, hold nobody's ear I sold you my hand once and you hit me in fear I don't stand for the devil I don't whisper in ears I stand on the mountains and call people to hear Sudden bursts of light, it's a fate foretold It is knowing, it is knowing He longs for the answers, as all of us must He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust He screams in the night, I scream in the day He weeps in the evening and lies naked and prays Night after night, day after day Night after night, day after day Would you watch my body weaken and my mind drift away? It's a tempting communion It's a fate foretold It is knowing, it is knowing What it is that you're told
It's funny you say that, the guitar at the beginning always reminds me of Famous Blue Raincoat. Love them both and have been fortunate to seem both live.
This may be odd to say, but to me, she is like the female part of mr leonard cohen..♡ shes remind me him in some way :) her music is so delicate, she sound like a broken butterfly, haunting beautiful
I was trying to pin point what she reminded me of and you're exactly right. This song in particular sounds like something that could have been on "Songs of Leonard Cohen". Laura has such a beautiful voice. I'm just sad that it took me so long to stumble across her music.
+forslavjo I totally see a similarity between this and "Famous Blue Raincoat." Maybe you guys hear this as well and that's what makes you think of Cohen..?
My darling, I loved you
I long to become you
And know what it is that you gave
We dance the sorrow
Forgive me tomorrow
And I pray night after night and day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
And my mind drift away?
Dear lover forsaken, our love is taken away
You were my speaker, my innocence-keeper
I don't night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken,
My mind drift away?
Dear lover forgiven, my love is driven by rage
Oh I should just leave you, instead I've deceived you
But I don't
Night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken and mind drift away?
I count no one, hold nobody's ear
I sold you my hand once and you hit me in fear
I don't stand for the devil
I don't whisper in ears
I stand on the mountains and call people to hear
Sudden bursts of light, it's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing
He longs for the answers, as all of us must
He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust
He screams in the night, I scream in the day
He weeps in the evening and lies naked and prays
Night after night, day after day
Night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken and my mind drift away?
It's a tempting communion
It's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing
What it is that you're told
Masterful guitar work, stunning vocals; truly one of a kind artist

Yes, she's definitely doing 'variations on a theme' of Famous Blue Raincoat, here!
yes! and I'm not surprised she's inspired by the best of the poetic songwriters, she's right there beside him...
One of my favorite songs
I love you Laura Marling
Masterpiece!
Gorgeous.
So glad that there is so much talent.
GAH, I find myself coming back her more and more often. Oh Laura, you inspire me.
The ambience makes this haunting.
La amo simplemente la amo... musica de la mejor
Podrías x favor dejarme la letra en español d q quiere decir, me la dedicó un extranjero y no tengo idea d q quiere decir
This should be made an official music video!!
Damn I love the way she sings!
Amazing! Great video for a great song.
this is GREAT nice work ;)
This song tells me I need counseling
Hahaha so true. I met the song at a time when everything was complicated and i’m going through complicated times again i’m here😅
Reminds me of I wont complain
By Benjamin clementine
Nailed it!
How do you know that
It is sad that Taylor Swift has the audience she has and Laura Marling goes unnoticed. We truly live in a mirror.
I fully agree
god save Laura!
I think it was actually her producer watching her play it in the studio... I could be wrong, though. still, a great fact.
the tv show Our World War brought me here
Thank you Laura Thank you !!And please get you cute butt back to Vancouver BC please ;( !!!!
