Marley Hale "On Your Knees" // Valley Sessions

Marley Hale gives advice to a younger self at the Historic Murray Hotel, in Silver City, NM. A song about hard learned lessons in bad love, and an unapologetic critique on ones past mistakes. She fills the old ballroom with her voice, sorrow, and fiddle accompaniment.

Lyrics:

He’s a good man
It’s not hard to see
Why he’s got you
On your knees
With your tender heart
So easily spent
You spend your days
In an endless lament

He’s easy to love
And hard to leave
And it’s something you know
But you won’t believe
And maybe you say
If you’re by his side
Someday he’ll go
And change his mind

And is this fun
You’re standing there loading his gun
When you really ought to run
Won’t you hit the road
Instead of standing there so low
Just waiting for the wind to blow

No other man will ever do
‘Til you leave the one
Who don’t love you
So you count your days
And you pass the time
Hoping that soon
He’ll meet your eyes

But years will pass
As you wait for him
Waiting and hoping
At every whim
And can’t you see
He’ll leave you behind
With only the flowers
To mark where you lie

And is this fun
You’re standing there loading his gun
When you really ought to run
Won’t you hit the road
Instead of standing there so low
Just waiting for the wind to blow

He’s a good man
It’s not hard to see
Why he’s got you
On your knees
