Laura Marling - Alas, I Cannot Swim




There's a house across the river, but alas. I cannot swim
And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin
There's a house across the river, but alas, I cannot swim
I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in

There's a boy across the river with short black curly hair

He wants to be my lover and I want to be his peer
There's a boy across the river but alas, I cannot swim
And I never will get to put my arms around him

There's a life across the river that was meant for me

Instead I live my life in constant misery
There's a life across the river but I do not see
Why I should please those that will never be pleased

There is gold across the river but I don't want none


Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun


There is gold across the river but I don't want none

I would rather be dry than held up by a golden gun

Saying work more, earn more, live more

Have more fun
