You Crawled out of the Sea

Laura Marling inveigles her way into my head and I find myself humming her. Particularly the following the part of Cross your Fingers that goes "jump into your grave and dieeeee" and the part of the interlude that follows with "you crawled out of the sea, straight into my arms", which always brings to mind a cuttlefish heaving itself out of the ocean and making a doomed bid for the girl it's just fallen in love with on the beach. Cuttlefish have blue blood you know (haemocyanin rather than haemoglobin). And three hearts. <3 <3 <3
