Laura Marling Tap At My Window Lyrics

Tap At My Window Lyrics

He taps at my window

Willing that I let him in

I don't think I will though

My heart's taken, I won't tell him again



Maybe I'll write him a story and

Maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms

Maybe I'll wake up lonely

And fall unawake again



And until you calm me down, race around this town

Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny

And I will not have him treat me this way



And mother, I blame you

Therein trying to be you again

For I have become you

And I know every part of the game



And father, I love you

But how can you watch as I push her away?

I cannot forgive you for bringing me up this way



Maybe I'll write them a story

And maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms

Maybe I'll wake up lonely

And fall unawake again



And until you calm me down, I race around this town

Until you calm me down, I race around this town

Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny

And I will not have them treat me this way



So tap at my window

Maybe I might let you in

I don't think I will though

My heart's taken, I won't tell you again
