My Beautiful Leah Lyrics - Pj Harvey

Did you see her walking? 

Did she come around here, Sir? 

Black hair, brown eyes 

My beautiful Leah 

She was always so needing 

Said, "I have no-one" 

Even as I held her 

She went out looking for someone 

She only had nightmares, 

And her sadness never lifted 

And slowly over the years 

Her lovely face twisted 

Did she come around here, Sir? 

I swear you would remember 

Black hair, Brown eyes 

Late September 

October 

November 

December 

It never leaves my mind 

The last words she said 

"If I don't find it this time, 

Then I'm better off dead".
