Bonnie "Prince" Billy Follow

I've been with you for a fairly long time
May I call you, may I call you, may I call you mine?
And you are near and been with me
May it always, may it always, may it always be

Please don't leave my side, remember I love you
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you
If you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
To reinforce what's all so strong and all the love we have in store

By example you showed me, livings alright
Stay here with me, stay here with me, stay with me tonight
And come with me when I go to the bedroom
And we'll play bride, and we'll play bride and we'll play bride and groom

If you had not been born you know
What would I? What would I be then?
I would not have strength to grow
And be counted, and be counted among men

Please don't leave my side, remember I love you
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you
If you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
To reinforce what's all so strong and all the love we have in store

And in the morning we'll wrestle and ruin our stomachs with coffee
Won't we be, won't we be, won't be happy?
We will rise in anger, love and ardor
Shining, shining, shimmering in love's armor
