not a lot, just forever (live) Letra - Adrianne Lenker

Through your eyes I see

The smile you bring to me

To your joy I tether

Not a lot, just forever

I don't know how to turn this off

Here we are

For a brief infinite moment

Together in this room, everything has led to this point

And we're together

Through your eyes I see

The smile you bring to me

To your joy I tether

Not a lot, just forever

Intertwined, sewn together

As the rock bears the weather

Not a lot, just forever

My dog barks wildly

To protect my infancy

From my ex-believer

And I try to calm the wolf

To remind him I am both

Still, he tears at my sweater

Not a lot, just forever

Intertwined, sewn together

As the wren sheds her feather

Not a lot, just forever

Your dearest fantasy

Is to grow a baby in me

I could be a good mother

And I wanna be your wife

So I hold you to my knife

And I steal your letter

Not a lot, just forever

Intertwined, sewn together

As the rock wears the weather

Not a lot, just forever

So I bash around the house

And the poison stains my mouth

She comes, I let her

And we share a paradise

When I roll them once or twice

It can't get much better

Not a lot, just forever

Intertwined, sewn together

As the wren sheds her feather

Not a lot, just forever
