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
