Night After Night Songtext
von Laura Marling

Darling, I loved you
I long to become you
And know
What it is that you gave

We dance the sorrow, forgive me tomorrow
I pray night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away?

Dear lover forsaken
Our love is taken away

Oh, 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
My 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

The 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
We weep in the evening and lie naked and pray

Night after night, day after day
Night after night, day after day
Night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
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?
