Rest In the Bed - Laura Marling

08 Rest In The Bed
There lies a man of my heart
A fine and complete work of art
Here I his woman his home and his heart
I'm proud to be playing that part
I'm proud to be playing that part
Rest in the bed of my bones
All that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live
The bite will come and you'll feel your call
As a sound as I believe in you
The first year was the hardest I'm sure
All shadows come to the shore
Know that it's you and I till the end
And all I want from life is to hold your hand
All that I have are these bones
And all that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live
The sirens come they always will
But the dart between my heart and his
Is as good as a diamond chain
Rest in the bed of my bones
All that I want is a home
And all you can do is promise me bold
That you won't let me grow dark or cold
As long as we both shall live
