Beth Orton - Magpie

Magpie, magpie, I stand here watching the world go by

I wonder do you ever question why?

… I'm still here wondering what you knowing

I've seen more everyday than I could dream

I don't mind no what I tell you

I don't mind no what I say

I don't mind no what we're saying

But it's a hard hard fight

A hard, hard fight

And I'm turning this one in,

I'm turning this one in

I won't turn back, I've seen the sign

I won't turn back not for anyone

I've seen the sign, and I know what is mine

Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like

Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like

You didn't take I don't think you mean quite what you say

I'm hoping you're the friend you claim to be

Oh crow, crow, will you tell me ?lease,

Tell me please what you know

You've seen more of the book than I could dream

I do not know what to tell you
I do not know what to say

I do not know what we're saying friend

But it's a hard hard fight

A hard, hard fight

And I'm turning this one in,

I'm turning this one in

I won't turn back, I've seen the sign

I won't turn back not for anyone

I've seen the sign, and I know I have faith

Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like

Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like

Eh, eh yeah

Silence when I won't be here anymore

Silence when I won't be here anymore

Silence when I won't be here anymore

Silence when I won't be here anymore

what a lie, what a lie, what a lie

what a lie, what a lie, what a lie

what a lie, what a lie, what a lie

what a lie, what a lie, what a lie

what a lie, what a lie, what a lie
