Blow By Blow
Laura Marling
I don't know what else to say
Think I did my best
Mama's on the phone already
Talking to the press
Tell them that I'm doing fine
Underplay distress
Working out a story
And there's so much to address
Note by note
Blow by blow
Seeing it all laid out
I should have known
I don't know what else to say
I think I'm doing fine
Trying to figure out
What I will do with all my time
Tell them anything you like
I'll own up to what's mine
Knowing thunder gives away
What lightning tries to hide
No-one was prepared
But we all performed
Like we'd done it all before
Note by note
Bruise by bruise
Sometimes the hardest thing to learn
Is what you get from what you lose
I feel a fool
So do you
For believing it could work out
Like some things do
