Cover art for Rest In the Bed lyrics by Laura Marling

There lies a man of my heart A fine and complete work of art Here, I his woman, his home, and his heart And proud to be playing that part And proud to be playing that part

Rest in the bed of my bones All that I want is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live

The bite will come and you'll feel your call As a sound as I believe in you

The first year was the hardest I'm sure All shadows come to the shore Know that it's you and I till the end And all I want from life is to hold your hand

All that I have are these bones And all that I want is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live

The sirens come, they always will But the dart between my heart and his Is as good as a diamond chain

Rest in the bed of my bones All that I want is a home And all you can do is promise me bold That you won't let me grow dark or cold As long as we both shall live
