Lyrics Laura Marling

Laura Marling

Cross Your Fingers

Look down on the body that you have grown

Four mountains stand around you, they're not your own

And light squares and bodies are all you see

Since you broke down, since I broke down

Since we broke down

Oh, I jumped into your grave and died

And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me

And you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger unless I lie

Cross your fingers, hold your toes

We're all going to die when the building blows

Cross your fingers, hold your toes

We're all going to die when the building blows

And the house that you were born in

Is crumbling at the corner

Sagging skin and feet of crows, feet of crows

Oh, I'll jump into your grave and die

And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me

And you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger unless I lie

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
