Lyrics She Will Lay My Body On The Stone - Jack Garratt

She Will Lay My Body On The Stone

I am begging you
Please separate me from myself
I’m begging you
I am on my knees
Praying for mercy
Lay my body down atop the stone
Even though it’s cold
I will keep warm with every year that I have known
But there are still so many things she doesn’t know
How can I tell her I’m unhappy and lonely?
When with you I go
Don’t let her miss me
Please don’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 it’s like the sun is in my eyes
I only want to look upon her beauty
But I’m blinded by her light
Her radiance gone to waste on me
A symphony she makes with her smile
And when she moves it’s like the sun is in my eyes
I only want to look upon her beauty
But I’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
