Jehnny Beth - French Countryside Lyrics

If I ever see the French countryside again
On my way out of this aeroplane
I will ask you to take me back
To that place by the river
Where we can be ourselves
Try a little harder
Oh my love don't desert me now

I've been figuring out what we talked about
And then what you need to change

I'll draw your body in the air
I'll whisper your name everywhere
And I sing my songs
Every night to feed my fears
Jump over fires
I'll be more self-disciplined
I'll sacrifice for you
We'll stay close to our love
Like bees over their hives

If I ever see the French countryside again
On my way out of this aeroplane
I know I went away, babe
But I was always there
It's hard sometimes
To show you really care
Oh my love, don't deserve you now

'Cause all my life
Been hanging around the wrong places
And all my life, I'm here at last
Telling you I am changing
If you wait for me I'll show you

I'll draw your body in the air
I'll whisper your name everywhere
And I sing my songs
Every night to feed my fears
Jump over fires
I'll be more self-disciplined
I'll sacrifice for you
We'll stay close to our love
Like bees over their hives

And I will open my hand
To catch the raindrops

If I ever see the French countryside again
