Laura Marling Flicker And Fail Live Radio 2 Folk Awards 2011

He took a bus to meet me in a bar in a Tuscan hill
Oh a sight I'd never seen I believe in God still
But you wouldn't be able to stop me
If I feel like running away
Wouldn't be able to stop me
If I didn't want to stay

And the rain fell on the houses
And on the great swaying trees
It fell it's fiercest on the skulls of the willingly deceived

They put money in their hearts
And God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts
And God

Said he'd been sleeping lonely
Spending nights under the stars
Little darling we're all lonely, we don't all show our scars
It's my heart and my burden
And I would never bring you down like that
My heart,my burden,I would never bring you down with me

And the rain fell on the towers
And on the great swaying trees
And it hammered and it raged on us unwillingly

And the believers were forewarned
And they ran into the storm and watched the earth's light
Flicker and fail
Watched the earth's light flicker and fail
Flicker and
Flicker and fail

They put money in their hearts
And God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts
And God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts
And God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts and God
