Florence And The Machine Mother Lyrics

Oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me on my knees Cause I belong to the ground now And it belongs to thee And oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me just like this Cause I belong to the ground now I want no more than this How I long for the older The sun keeps burning deep Every stone in this city keeps reminding me Can you protect me from what I want? The love I let in, it left me so lost Mother, make me Make me a big tall tree So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me Mother, make me Make me a big grey cloud So I can rain on you things I can't say out loud All these couples are kissing And I can't stand the heat I lost my shoes and left the party I wander in the street I put my feet into the fountain The statues all asleep No use wishing on the water It grants you no relief Mother, make me Make me a bird of prey So I can rise above this, let it fall away Mother, make me Make me a song so sweet Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet Oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me on my knees Cause I belong to the ground now And it belongs to thee And oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me just like this Cause I belong to the ground now I want no more than this Oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me on my knees Cause I belong to the ground now And it belongs to thee Oh lord, won't you leave me Leave me just like this Cause I belong to the ground now I want no more than this
