MARY

Laura Marling

O the cold wet wind
Blew over the heather
You wrote 'Charlie and Mary for forever'
On the back of a rock
That you picked up on your way

In that perfect moment
I nearly ruined it
By saying 'I love you'
And nearly meaning it
But you know I would
Never waste those words

But when I last saw Mary
She lied and said it was her birthday.
And I said please don't lie
O it makes me cry in bed
And I said 'Please don't lie
O it makes me cry in bed'

And she said 'Shut your mouth
You don't know what you're talking about
O the way that your hair is always neat
And your skirts fall below your knees
And your love is so pure and so sweet
O well it comforts me
O well it comforts me
O well it comforts me

O the way that you're always surprised
O the fine truth in all of my lies
'Cause you trust me and ignore my disguise
O well it comforts me
O well it comforts me
O well it comforts me

But there's no need to play with my heart
There's no need to play with my heart
There's no need to play with my heart
There's no need to play with my heart
No.
