Leave Behind
Martha Wainwright
[Intro] [Verse] Leave behind the dog Leave behind the god Believe me when I say There’s a danger comin’ our way [Verse] It’s been lovely travellin’ travellin’ travellin’ this way Thanks to the sun the moon the moon the night and the day [Verse] But the sea can no longer wait The levy’s about to break There’s a child that’s been built for today And it can see only miles away [Verse] We’ll follow it to the dawn dawn dawn and the day And it will teach us to forget forget forget how to pray [Verse] And we’ll follow behind in the ground And the sea will be the only sound [Verse] It’s been rainin’ every every every day Does this mean you’re gonna you’re gonna you’re gonna stay? [Verse] And the feelin’ is comin’ around Like we were never meant to walk this ground And why does love forget every day And leave me on my knees at my own grave [Verse] It’s been lovely travellin’ travellin’ travellin’ this floor I hope your love was never never never too sure [Verse] Leave behind the dog Leave behind the god Believe me when I say There’s a danger comin’ our way
