Cocorosie Child Bride Lyrics
Child Bride by CocoRosie
It's hard to tell
This is my wedding night
I'm dressed and ready
Despite my innocence
It's hard to tell
Whose little girl am I
The man with the black hat
Will take me home tonight
I wash my body
Five years grown
He promised father
Leave me alone
Hope not too lonely
We pull away
Down a dusty road
Family waving
Hope not too lonely
I watch the grass blow
Through the window
I'm a good grass widow
I'm a grass widow
News from the sparrow
My friendly fellow
They get along
Just fine without me
They're never lonely
They're never lonely
I watch the flowers grow
Outside my window
I'm a good grass widow
I'm a grass widow
This is my wedding night
I'm dressed and ready
Despite my innocence
It's hard to tell
Whose little girl am I
The man with the black hat
Will take me home tonight
I wash my body
Five years grown
He promised father
Leave me alone
Hope not too lonely
We pull away
Down a dusty road
Family waving
Hope not too lonely
I watch the grass blow
Through the window
I'm a good grass widow
I'm a grass widow
News from the sparrow
My friendly fellow
They get along
Just fine without me
They're never lonely
They're never lonely
I watch the flowers grow
Outside my window
I'm a good grass widow
I'm a grass widow
