Looking Back (Zane Lowe session)

Playing her Father's (Charles Marling) song.

Lyrics:
Says you've been sleeping lonely spending nights under the stars,
Giovanna, we're all lonely we don't always show our scars,
It's my heart, and my burden I wouldn't ever bring you down like that,
my heart, and my burden I wouldn't ever bring you down with me,

When with age my body is spent,
against my will I must relent,
but in my heart where love still beats,
I'm always thinking of you,
Im a prisoner, in this chair confined to younger faces,
My memories are not with them but off in distant places.

Looking back that's all ill do,
Looking back that's all ill do
Looking back that's all ill ever do,

Oh Giovanna, I love you still,
Oh Giovanna in a bar on a tuscan hill,
I'm lonely man now, spending nights under the stars,
Oh Giovanna those nights, are always ours.

[Marlens93]

@billodditty I believe Flicker and Fail is her adaption of this song that was written by her father, but I'm not sue though

[billodditty]

this is flicker and fail??? no?

[rohansixtythree]

@MH90 Flicker and Fail is an itunes bonus track on ACIDK.

@Asticotee Your English is very good :) Fortunately, anything Miss Marling produces is incredible!

[Asticotee]

@JoshuaWJW93 I know :( I A Hope isn't neither. It kills me, it was the one I was the most waiting for. She's seriously a sadist to give us a small part of a studio version in a Skins episode and NOTHING ELSE.

(Sorry for my shitty english.)

[MH90]

Much prefer this to Flicker and Fail. Still, neither will be on ACIDK. Shazbot!

[JoshuaWJW93]

@Asticotee Turns out this song isn't going to be on the album at all :(

But it still looks great! :)
