Rest In The Bed

There lies a man of my heart A fine and complete work of art Here, I his woman, his home, and his heart And proud to be playing that part And proud to be playing that part Rest in the bed of my bones All that I have is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live The sirens come and shall feel your call As a sound as I believe in you The first bit's the hardest I'm sure Where our shadows come to the shore Know that it's you and I till the end And all I want from life is to hold your hand All that I have are these bones And all that I want is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live The sirens come, they always will But the dart between my heart and his Is as good as a diamond chain Rest in the bed of my bones All that I want is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live --- Rest in the Bed - Laura Marling
