she will lay my body on the stone

Jack Garratt

I am begging you
Please separate me from myself
IÂ?m begging you
I am on my knees
Praying for mercy
Lay my body down atop the stone

Even though itÂ?s cold
I will keep warm with every year that I have known
But there are still so many things she doesnÂ?t know
How can I tell her IÂ?m unhappy and lonely?

When with you I go
DonÂ?t let her miss me
Please donÂ?t make her suffer for my selfishness
For it was my design
To make her happy
Whispers compared to the symphony she makes

That plays in her smile
And when she moves itÂ?s like the sun is in my eyes
I only want to look upon her beauty
But IÂ?m blinded by her light
Her radiance gone to waste on me

A symphony she makes with her smile
And when she moves itÂ?s like the sun is in my eyes
I only want to look upon her beauty
But IÂ?m blinded by her light
Her radiance has saved me

Oh, I am begging you
To let me stay here
I still have so many years to know
And when I see you next
I will be ready
For she will be with me

A hand to keep mine steady
Oh, she will lay my body on the stone
