History Of Man - Maisie Peters

作曲：Joe Rubel/Maisie Peters

Tale as old as honey

A moment everybody knows

Yeah I'm sure there was heartbreak

Inside the walls of jericho

I couldn't believe it

How you could just stop wanting me

You burnt down easter island

As if it wasn't sacred as

If it wasn't sacred to me

I've seen it in the

Poems and the sands

I've pleaded with the

Powers and their plans

I tried to rewrite it but I can't

It's the history the history of man

She stays up he's sleeping like a lamb

She begs him he says he doesn't understand

She loves him more than anyone ever has

In the history the history of man

It's the history of man

You didn't even falter

Didn't look back once did you

So samson blamed delilah

But given half the chance I

I would've made him weaker too

Sirens sounded trumpets blaring

You walked out oh without sweating

I've seen it in the

Poems and the sands

I've pleaded with the

Powers and their plans

I tried to rewrite it but I can't

It's the history the history of man

She stays up he's sleeping like a lamb

She begs him he says he doesn't understand

She loves him more than anyone ever has

In the history the history of man

He stole her youth and promised heaven

The men start wars yet troy hates helen

Women's hearts are lethal weapons

Did you hold mine and feel threatened

Hear my lyrics taste my venom

You are still my great obsession

I've seen it in the poems and the sands

I've pleaded with the

Powers and their plans

I tried to rewrite it but I can't

It's the history history

The history of man

I stay up you're sleeping like a lamb

I beg you and you don't understand

I hold on I try to hold your hand

Save you a seat and then you

Say you want to stand

So you'll lose me the best you'll ever have

It's the history the history of man
