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
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..?
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.
