Undine Lyrics
Made my steps towards the water,
where Undine last was seen
I was told that if you saw her,
She would make you more naive
Made my steps towards the shore,
She sang her love at me
Oh Undine so sweet and pure, make me more naive
Oh Undine, sing your love to me
Oh Undine, knowing I'd love this lovely scene
There were ropes around my wrist,
And the tide pulled at her hair
Pulling her away from me,
And me away from there
Yes, the water tried to take her,
Tried to make poor Undine hide
But she fought herself against it,
Love in her had not yet died
Oh Undine, sing your love to me
Oh Undine, fight your way to me
You live for the sea
Oh Undine, you live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
What's going in there?
What's going on in there?
Let me in
I was called there in December,
So I took my coat and left
Left Undine by the embers,
That’s all our fire had left
Left Undine by the shore,
Where she sang her love at me
Oh Undine, so sweet and pure,
Knowing I'd love this lovely scene
You live for the sea, oh Undine
You live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
What’s going on in there?
What’s going on in there?
Let me in
You live for the sea, Undine
You live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
You cannot love me
where Undine last was seen
I was told that if you saw her,
She would make you more naive
Made my steps towards the shore,
She sang her love at me
Oh Undine, sing your love to me
Oh Undine, knowing I'd love this lovely scene
There were ropes around my wrist,
And the tide pulled at her hair
Pulling her away from me,
And me away from there
Tried to make poor Undine hide
But she fought herself against it,
Love in her had not yet died
Oh Undine, sing your love to me
Oh Undine, fight your way to me
You live for the sea
Oh Undine, you live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
What's going on in there?
Let me in
I was called there in December,
So I took my coat and left
Left Undine by the embers,
That’s all our fire had left
Left Undine by the shore,
Where she sang her love at me
Oh Undine, so sweet and pure,
Knowing I'd love this lovely scene
You live for the sea, oh Undine
You live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
What’s going on in there?
What’s going on in there?
Let me in
You live for the sea
You cannot, you cannot
You cannot love me

I can't go in depth, but this song has a mystical sense to it. Undine refers to a water nymph. I love the guitar! It might just be a fun song for laura, about undine. It's also got a sense of longing... "what's going on... let me in..."
bests fucking track in the album,

I love Laura Marling and this song is fantastic... but just one question content-wise (to be annoying), aren't undines only living in fresh water? :) are there legends of them in the sea?
