Only Child - Marcus Mumford

On my shoulder

As we laid awake

And you always love a smoke by eight

'Cause baby don't mind

Gets never colder

Than when the daylight breaks

Do you now regret the bed we made?

Does it cross your mind?

Well, baby, does it cross your mind?

I did not intend to slow you down, mmm

Even hoped that we would have spoke by now

I was acting like an only child

What takes forever

Is a lesson learned

I have nothing to show for the medals I've earned

And maybe I mind

'Cause no one's ever

Seen me traipsing in

I've been hiding from all the places I've been

And sore from trying

And acting like an only child

But I did not intend to slow you down, mmm

Even though I'd hoped we'd have spoke by now

Maybe we were only lying

Heaven's closing

They're still pouring drinks

And of all those crazy ways you think

I love you lying

But I can't reason

With the past we face

I'm sorry for the mess we made

And if you want, we'll pick through my mistakes

You'll see me crying

But maybe we could put it all behind

I did not intend to force your hand, oh

Even though we swore we'd understand

Maybe we'll be always trying

We'll be always trying
