Only Child Lyrics - Marcus Mumford

{Verse No. 1}
On my shoulder
As we laid awake
And you always love a smoke by eight
'Cause baby don't mind
Gets never colder
Than when the daylight breaks
Do you now regret the bed we made?
Does it cross your mind?
Well, baby, does it cross your mind?
{Chorus}
I did not intend to slow you down, mmm
Even hoped that we would have spoke by now
I was acting like an only child

{Verse No. 2}
What takes forever
Is a lesson learned
I have nothing to show for the medals I've earned
And maybе I mind
'Cause no one's evеr
Seen me traipsing in
I've been hiding from all the places I've been
And sore from trying
And acting like an only child

{Chorus}
But I did not intend to slow you down, mmm
Even though I'd hoped we'd have spoke by now
Maybe we were only lying

{Verse No. 3}
Heaven's closing
They're still pouring drinks
And of all those crazy ways you think
I love you lying
But I can't reason
With the past we face
I'm sorry for the mess we made
And if you want, we'll pick through my mistakes
You'll see me crying
But maybe we could put it all behind

{Chorus}
I did not intend to force your hand, oh
Even though we swore we'd understand
Maybe we'll be always trying
We'll be always trying
