Polly Jean Harvey - That Was My Veil lyrics

1a

It starts at daylight

e

I see him

17

Before my sad eyes

19

I hear him breathing

22

Oh lover, need you to lead me

26

No never thought that you'd leave

5

15

That was my veil

15

That was my time

15

Once held secret

11

But now lies

5

11

No words can

12

Heal my heart

16

Inside i'm broken

12

Now it's done

1c

Was she a pretty girl ?

20

Does she have pretty hair ?

1a

Was she soft-spoken ?

1d

Was there a love there ?

5

15

That was my veil

15

That was my time

15

Once held secret

11

But now lies

5

16

Give back my veil

16

Give back my time

13

No more secret

15

You give me lies

5

19

Give me back my veil

16

Give back my life

13

No more secret

15

You give me lies

9

Lies
