Text: Laura Marling. Other. Mary.
Oh 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
and in that perfect moment i nearly ruined it
by saying i love you and nearly meaning it
but you know i
would never waist those words
oh when i last saw mary
she lied and said it was her birthday
and i said
oh please dont lie
it makes me cry in bed
oh i said
please dont lie
it makes me cry in bed
she said shut your mouth
you dont know what your talking about
oh the way that your hair is always neat
and your skirts fall below your knees
and your love is so pure and so sweet
oh well it comforts me
oh well it comforts me
oh well it comforts me
oh well it comforts me
oh the way that your always surprised
oh to find truth in all of my lies
cause you trust me and ignore my disguise
oh well it comforts me
oh well it comforts me
oh well it comforts me
but theres no need to play with my heart
theres no need to play with my heart
theres no need to play with my heart
theres no need to play with my heart
no
(Thanks to mary for these lyrics)
