florence + the machine – mother lyrics
[intro]
oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me on my knees?
’cause i belong to the ground now
and it belongs to me
and oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me just like this?
’cause i belong to the ground now
i want no more than this
[verse 1]
how long for the autumn
the sun keeps burning me
every stone in this city keeps reminding me, oh
can you protect me from what i want?
a lover i let in left me so lost
[chorus 1]
mother, make me
make me a big tall tree
so i can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
mother, make me
make me a big grey cloud
so i can rain on you things i can’t say out loud
[verse 2]
all these couples are kissing
and i can’t stand the heat
i lost my shoes and left the party
i wandered in the street
i put my feet into the fountain
the statues all asleep
no use wishing on the water
won’t bring you no release
[chorus 2]
mother, make me
make me a bird of prey
so i can rise above this, let it fall away
mother, make me
make me a song so sweet
heaven trembles, fallen at our feet
[outro]
oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me on my knees?
’cause i belong to the ground now
and it belongs to me
and oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me just like this?
’cause i belong to the ground now
i want no more than this
oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me on my knees?
’cause i belong to the ground now
and it belongs to me
and oh lord, won’t you leave me
leave me just like this?
’cause i belong to the ground now
i want no more than this
