Interesting upbeat performance of Alas I cannot swim (Laura Marling) at the end. I heard the slow performance on radical music subreddit years ago and bought the CD. This is definitely the best tune on it though. Theres a house across the river but alas i cannot swim And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin Theres a house across the river but alas i cannot swim Ill live my life regretting that i never jumped in! Theres a boy across the river with short black curly hair He wants to be my lover and i want to be his peer Theres a boy across the river but alas i cannot swim And i never will get to put my arms around him Theres a life across the river that was ment for me instead i live my life in constant misery Theres a life across the river but i do not see why i should please those who will never be pleased There is gold across the river but i dont want none There is gold across the river but i dont want none Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun! Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun! There is gold across the river but i dont want none I would rather be dry then held up by a golden gun saying Work more earn more live more have more fun! saying Work more earn more live more have more fun! saying Work more earn more live more have more fun!
