Little Bird
Laura Marling · Once I Was An Eagle [2013]
Oh Rosie, where have you been?
I couldn't save you but I tried
Rosie, I tried
Why did you run?
From everyone who only tried to love you
Rosie, only tried
Little bird, if I only knew
Maybe I'd be more like you, with a feather in my wing
Is it spring?
Do I sing?
Why do you run?
From everyone who only tries to love you
Rosie, only tries
Maybe I like pleasure/pain
Of going and coming back again
What I leave behind I come back to find it's no longer mine
