Libertine Lyrics by The Northern Folk

Stumble On Home

2016

[Verse 1]
She’s always had a passion for anything like fashion
But thinks it looks better on the floor
And for someone who knows everything about clothes
Well she barely wears a thing anymore
She says that something’s missing when we get to kissing
Cause she doesn’t like the lights turned out
So she throws open the curtains, tears off her shirt
And turns to candles when the sun burns out
[Verse 2]
Married to the preacher man, faithful ain’t a feature
And I promise that she’ll eat you alive
She says darling quit your stressing, just give me your blessing
It’ll be the best thing you survive
You don’t know where you went, you don’t know what you spent
But you can smell her scent on your shirt
It’s all for the best, take your heart from your chest
And the rest is all going to hurt
[Chorus]
No, you’ll never love her but you see it through
The kind of girl your mother wouldn’t want for you
She’s gonna love you ’til you’re black and blue
Frozen through, your heart in two
Black and blue
[Verse 3]
Everybody’s needing a story to proceed ’em
But I’m worried that it’s happened again
Cause every time you’re here, I just start to fear
That you haven’t even told them your name
Everybody’s saying you’re simply just playing around
You’ve got a mind of your own
But even just by playing, you’re basically saying
That you’re really scared of being alone
[Chorus]
No, you’ll never love her but you see it through
The kind of girl your mother wouldn’t want for you
She’s gonna love you ’til you’re black and blue
Frozen through, your heart in two
Black and blue
