Bat For Lashes - The Bride Lyrics






I Do

Tomorrow, you will ask me if I do
Know that the sorrow will drop away
Like June, from a flower in bloom

When you say "I do"
When you say "I do"

Tomorrow, you will take me for your bride
And know that the grey skies will blow away
We're forever and I feel it inside

When you say "I do"
When you say "I do"
When you say "I do"

Joes Dream

There's a tear in my lover's eyes
He's at my window, it's a gloomy night
Said he dreamt of God's search light
It remembered his name
Lays his hand gently to my face
Through the promise of wedding lace
And I feel his dark embrace
As my baby, he cries

I'm falling in love
(Don't say goodbye)
I'm falling like a star from above
(Don't say goodbye)
And I finally found my pot of gold
(Don't say goodbye)
And now I can't see just what my heart can hold
But what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen

He saw angels at his bedroom door
And a body on a checkered floor
There was lightning in his black leather
And it struck out his name
No more tears, baby, please don't cry
I tried to tell him everything is fine
Cross my heart and hope to die
I won't say goodbye

Cause I'm falling in love
(Don't say goodbye)
I'm falling like a star from above
(Don't say goodbye)
And I finally found my pot of gold
(Don't say goodbye)
And now I can't see just what my heart can hold
But what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen

Oh, what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen
What does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen

Tomorrow, you will ask me if I do
Know that the sorrow will drop away
Like June, from a flower in bloom

Tomorrow, you will take me for your bride
And know that the grey skies will blow away
We're forever and I feel it inside

Honeymooning Alone

Walking out, walking out in this cold winter light
All the pretty girls, all the pretty ones have tears in their eyes
And I can't because I don't have you here by my side
And I'll always be, I'll always be the girl that was denied

Driving my car in the night
(Honeymooning alone)
The cans on the road in daylight
(Honeymooning alone)
And your empty seat by my side
(Honeymooning alone)
If I drive far enough will I find my love?

My love, my love
My love, my love

I'm crying now, crying as the stars fail to shine
I'm punning now, punning for your warmth and your smile
And I waited all, I waited all my life for this night
But there's no moon, the moon is to doubt all their lies

Driving my car in the night
(Honeymooning alone)
The cans on the road in daylight
(Honeymooning alone)
And your empty seat by my side
(Honeymooning alone)
If I drive far enough will I find my love?

My love, my love
My love, my love
My love, my love
My love, my love

My love
My love

Sunday Love

See her in blue eyes
Numb and shining
In the face of strangers
In the city lights
Where he's climbing
Cupid's diving
And I know that she's come
To spend the night

I see her in every place I go
Sunday love is so cold
Even though I'm falling apart
I want Sunday love in my heart

I see her in blue eyes
Still and shining
And lonely lovers
On bed sheets white
Great ships slighting
I've been parting
She is in my bedroom
Now I can't fight

I see her in every place I go
Sunday love is so cold
Even though I'm falling apart
I want Sunday love in my heart
I see her in every place I go
Sunday love is so cold
Even though I'm falling apart
I want Sunday love in my heart

I see her in every place I go
Sunday love is so cold
Even though I'm falling apart
I want Sunday love in my heart

Never Forgive The Angels

Tomorrow, you will ask me if I do
Know that the sorrow will drop away
Like June, from a flower in bloom

And know that the grey skies will blow away
We're forever and I feel it inside

Close Encounters

Some say my lover is a pale green light
He hovers high where the moon shines bright
I feel him come to me in the dead of night
And I go to the other side

And when he lovingly takes my hand
Pulls me close to a windswept land
I can't make anybody else understand
How I go to the other side

You know that I'll love you till the stars don't shine
You know that you'll always fill this heart of mine
And I could never forget with time
All our close encounters
All our close encounters

And on the other side, he's all around
He is a starry beam that lays me down
And we become a dream of time and sound
When I go to the other side

You know that I'll love you till the stars don't shine
You know that you'll always fill this heart of mine
And I could never forget with time
All our close encounters
All our close encounters
All our close encounters

Widows Peak

Come under with me
Through young girls' dreams
Don't wake me up too soon
There's a halo on the moon
You hunger, I'll thirst
Pink stars do burst
God of lightning, goddess of fern
A map to memorize, a lullaby to learn
Come on darling, take me there
Where red clouds blew and fill the air
Where my purple hear beats to your jet black snout
Up on poiny point if your dare
You're my blood, you're my wine
You're my mountain to climb
Say you're mine, you're mine, you're mine

Bride in the fog, and no way out
Can't see my own hands, can't hear a sound
Where angels conspire and heroes do drown
I am lost in the mire upside down
Is that my soul on fire whirling by?
Take a walk, man of god I just want to die
I tell you my friend
The widow is on my trail
You'll hear her, you will know her
The chill on the skin, the song on the wind
To wonder, to roam, to never know how
To lie under a sky of blood reds and pale blue
To trail ten thousand miles in a dead man's shoes
There's a demon loose, a demon loose
I can't get home, I can't get home
For the road is a snake of mist
And the shadow of a rebel's fist
His jacket on my back, his bones on the shore
But the secret of dreams is to dream up a door
A portrait of him, a picture of her
A keyhole in a Douglas fir

Now
Now
Ah

Lands End

Well the winter it came, my love
And I did not know my own name
So I drove down that old country road
And the spirits conjured something
Grey clouds over storms did roll
And I searched for you in the cyclone
For my love, I will bleed
And I drive till I set myself free

To land's end
Oh, oh
To land's end
Oh, oh
To land's end

Ask a soothsayer and old men wives
Where the witches burnt for all our lies
Past the motorways and city lights
That my soul be free and spirit fly

To land's end
Oh, oh
To land's end
Oh, oh
To land's end
To land's end

If I Knew

You know that you came at the perfect time
There was a mountain I had to claim as mine
And you brought every weather from storm to shine
But I'm thankful for who you helped me fight

Baby, if I knew what I know now
I would never turn it back around
Wrong or right, you held me up to the light
The mountain had a mirror inside
And where I was going took time

And you've seen me walk through a veil of fire
Stroll up by the darkness as my pain flew high
And I thought it was you I'd been searching for
Somehow I am a mirror, the mountain a door

Baby, if I knew what I know now
I could never turn it back around
Wrong or right, you held me up to the light
The mountain had a mirror inside
And where I was going took time

I Will Love Again

One of these nights
One of these days
I will love again
Oh, I was a deer in the lights
I was lost in the waves
But I will love again

Cause I will turn it back around
I'll be homeward bound
I will turn it back around
I'll be homeward bound

One of these nights
One of these days
I will love again
Oh, I was a needle in flight
I was lost in the caves
But I will love again

Cause I will turn it back around
I'll be homeward bound
I will turn it back around
I'll be homeward bound

In Your Bed

I don't want to party no more
Somehow that scene can be such a bore
I don't even want to paint the town red
I don't want to waste my time
Putting on dresses and drinking wine

I just wanna be in your arms instead
Let's lay in your bed and dream together
In a world of our minds
Just spending time in your bed
And walk forever in a silence divine
Just spending time in your bed

Little Annie makes things seem bright
When she spins sparkles all through the night
But I like you like the kind that grows inside
Get home so early the birds are in bed
There's a cyclone blowing through my hair

Well I just wanna be in your arms instead
Let's lay in your bed and dream together
In a world of our minds
Just spending time in your bed
And walk forever in a silence sublime
Just spending time in your bed

And dream forever in a world of our rhymes
Just spending time in your bed
And walk forever in a silence sublime
Just spending time

We're forever and I feel it inside
