That Was My Veil PJ Harvey & John Parish

[Verse 1]
It starts at daylight
I see him
Before my sad eyes
I hear him breathing
Oh, lover
Need you to lead me
No, never
Thought that you'd leave

[Chorus]
That was my veil
That was my time
Once held sacred
But now lies

[Verse 2]
No words can
Heal my heart
Inside I'm broken
Now it's done
Was she a pretty girl?
Did she have pretty hair?
Was she soft spoken?
Was there our love there?
