Is A Hope / Drinking Alone FULL Version (with lyrics) - Laura Marling

Laura Marling
Yes, in the Skins episode there was a studio version but it has not been released, yet.


Lyrics: (Not sure if they are accurate I simply wrote down what I heard, or thought I heard)


I've been thinking
On my wandering
On my way home
From your house
That I love you
And why I do
And if there'll ever be someone else

You're young and you're stable
Stand up to your labor
You're young and you're able
Oh but you need you a savior
Oh you need you a savior

Young believers
Come and see her
She has pushed him into the ground
Though with one hand
He could break her
With one hand
Split her two
But the reason that we love him
Is a hope
He don't want to
Use a hope
He don't want to

Can you find for me
A higher thing ? (I don't think that's right)
So I can love him
Will not fight for me
Cause I do not believe
Believe that I love thee
So fight for me
Think and feel for me

No, I do not believe
But believe
That I love you
But believe that I love you
And when you're drinking alone
Know it's bad for my soul
To come back to a year ago
Throwing stones at my window

Ask me demon
To hear the mourning of
Yes I heard these songs
Like bullets to me
Put a calm in me
Knowing it was he
Who was fucking crazy
You're young
And you're stable
Stand up to your labor

She's saying "Yes I heard the songs- like bullets to me" I (personally) think she's referring to Fink's The First Days of Spring, but it's only opinion.

@bobjohnson513 Sounds about right! Thanks! 

[Mariela4291]

From what concert is this version from exactly?

[ReginaOverTheRainbow]

@Mariela4291 From "Laura Marling & Friends"

[hectorcadet]

It's "Like the lips for me"

[ReginaOverTheRainbow]

@hectorcadet Thank you! I fixed it

[Asticotee]

Can't wait to hear a complete studio version. This song obsesses me.

[elliemakesmusic]

[Meko202]

Man, I would kill for the guitar tabs for this.

[xJuliakind]

my goosebumps have goosebumps

[alwaysandeverful]

@breakingintocars Because it's never been properly recorded. It's not on the tracklist for her new album either but here's hoping it gets recorded one day!

[DjBescul]

I love this song.

[MrDeathKidd]

@breakingintocars me neither if you find something pls tell with me

[breakingintocars]

I can't find this song to download ANYWHERE. Why?

[desmopstochter]

goosebumps! god, I hope this will be on the new album, and I also hope that there will be a new album soon...

[13DeaMagdala]

I think that the name of the song is: Is A Hope (Drinking Alone), like if they make one sentence :)
