David Breathes
Laura Marling · Other Songs - Laura Marling
I look west and I believe
He looks east and thinks of me
I look west and I believe
There's the sky that David breathes
David won't see me no more
I open gates that close doors
So just to know he lives and breathes
Will have to be enough for me
There's an angel walking earth
One of a kind amongst all this dirt
David means the world to me
The world that told me it would never be
I sat down and I swallowed my pride
I asked him not to leave my mind
With a tear in my eye
And a lump in my throat
I read David's final note
Goodbye, be well, I'll think of you
Till the sun turns black and the stars go blue
So I look west and I must believe
He looks east and thinks of me
I look west and I believe
There's the sky that David breathes
He looks east and thinks of me
I look west and I believe
There's the sky that David breathes
David won't see me no more
I open gates that close doors
So just to know he lives and breathes
Will have to be enough for me
There's an angel walking earth
One of a kind amongst all this dirt
David means the world to me
The world that told me it would never be
I sat down and I swallowed my pride
I asked him not to leave my mind
With a tear in my eye
And a lump in my throat
I read David's final note
Goodbye, be well, I'll think of you
Till the sun turns black and the stars go blue
So I look west and I must believe
He looks east and thinks of me
I look west and I believe
There's the sky that David breathes
