Marissa Nadler - Leather Made Shoes Lyrics

Artist: Marissa Nadler

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Marissa Rachael Nadler

Mayflower was a girl
Who came from my room
With a box of faded feathers
And her leather made shoes

But you know when she goes
She'll be crying
'Cause she died all alone
With her feathers and bows

I was just a lonely thing
When I met Mr. Bear
And he loved his sleeping next to me
And in his eyes I stared

But you know when he goes
He'll be crying
'Cause he died all alone
With his feather and bows

Mary, Mary Mayflower
And John Lee all came
On the day that I died
Upon the spring
The day his wedding came

But you know when I go
I'll be crying
'Cause I died all alone
With my feathers and bows

Don't you know when she goes
She'll be crying
'Cause a love that has died
Is a sad, sad thing

Mayflower way a girl
Who came from my room
With a box of faded feathers
And her leather made shoes

But you know when she goes
She'll by crying
'Cause a love that has died
Is a sad, sad thing
