not a lot, just forever - live Songtext
von Adrianne Lenker

Through your eyes, I see
The smile you bring to me
To your joy, I tether
Not a lot, just forever
Through your eyes, I see
The smile you bring to me
To your joy, I tether
Not a lot, just forever

Intertwined, sewn together
As the rock bears the weather
Not a lot, just forever

My dog barks wildly
To protect my infancy
From my ex-believer
And I try to calm the wolf
To remind him I am both
Still he tears at my sweater


Intertwined, sewn together
As the wren sheds her feather
Not a lot, just forever

Your dearest fantasy
Is to grow a baby in me
I could be a good mother
And I wanna be your wife
So I hold you to my knife
And I steal your letter

Intertwined, sewn together
As the rock bears the weather
Not a lot, just forever

So I bash around the house
And the poison stains my mouth
She comes, I let her
And we share a paradise
And I roll and I′m worn so twice
It can't get much better

Intertwined, sewn together
As the wren sheds her feather
Not a lot, just forever
