Laura Marling - Salinas

I am from salinas
Where the women go forever
And they never ever stop to ask why
My mother was a saviour
Of six foot of bad behaviour
With long blonde curly hair down to her thigh
Oh my mother
Oh my friends
Ask the angels
Will I ever see heaven again?

Late into the evening
They would take each other screaming
Looking darkly to the back of her eye
A careless beast was bleating
That the air behind was breathing
That they mustn’t ever look up to the sky
There no answers
There are found
Ask the angels
Am I heaven bound?

Hmm put it down to me
I, who speak awkwardly
Any word if it is heard is not intended to be
Not for him, not for her
And not for them and not for me
Oh and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
Understand

Hmm when the clouds roll in
We start playing for our sins
With a gun in my hand
And my son at my shoulder
Believe I will run before that boy gets older
Oh and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
Understand
Oh and that gun will turn before the sun starts to burn
Understand

I am from salinas
Where the women go forever
And they never ever stop to ask why
My mother,she's a saviour
Of six foot of bad behaviour
With long blonde curly hair down to her thigh
Oh my mother
Oh my friends
Ask the angels
Will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?
Will I ever see heaven again?

Punish them all for they speak too much
Hate the world what it did to us
Will I ever see heaven again?
