Sparklehorse Marigold

The thirteenth and final track from Mark's album Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain.

Lyrics

Drifting off to sleep
Tryin' to steal some peace
All of our tomorrows
Will be yesterdays again

Course
(Oh) Wake up Marigold, come in
Oh, come in

I caught a little hawk
Put him in a box
Looked like he'd been shot
I tried to find his kin

(Course)

My granddaddys grapes
Grew around a stakes
Return to the earth
Oh, just like him

(Course)

I'm begging no one day(?)
Will be back (I don't know this)
Maybe we'll be stars
Or honey in a jar
And I'll be made of tin

(Course)

I used to think the hills
Were giants lying still
And someday they'd awake
And overturn the lakes

Wake up Marigold x3
Come in
Oh, come in

This is not on my version of Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain! Why?

[dcoop90]

@hexenductionhour There's two versions on iTunes. One featuring Marigold and the other featuring Galveston.

The lyrics are in the description box now, peeps. There were some bits I could decipher though. If anyone with a more discerning ear can tell what it is, post it and let me know, then I'll fix them. Thanks, and enjoy.

[gravina2007]

someone can put the lyrics of the song. I do not know much English and I do not get anywhere. thanks

[dcoop90]

@gravina2007 I put them in the description box.

Also it's "chorus" not "course" in the lyrics... small typo but it bugs me slightly.

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

@dcoop90 Er, I got a version with both. ...?

[RipeLies]

This song is incredible...I've been trying to download it for a while now, but I can't seem to find it anywhere! Does anyone have a clue how I could find a downloadable version of this song?

PS: Thanks for posting it :)

I believe

"I'm begging no one day(?)

Will be back (I don't know this)"

is really

"I'm begging no one day

we'll evaporate"
