Polly Jean Harvey - The Bay lyrics

Said betty you're my girl

The strongest i've seen

But oh my heart is heading to break

They say god forgives

But i can't learn the same

Said betty she's fine

And betty she's tall

And betty makes love

Like no woman at all

But oh my heart is heading to break

They say god forgives

But i can't learn the same

So i gave him my time

And i gave him my peace

And i gave him my heart

Gave it to keep

But oh my eyes making fools out of me

They say love is blindness

I can no longer see

Now i've no more to give

And i've no more to say

And the stars shine less bright now

Over this dead man's bay

But oh my heart is heading to break

They say god forgives

Is this love in the grave

They say god forgives

Is this love in the grave

They say god forgives

Is this love in the grave
