Loyle Carner - Florence Lyrics






[Loyle Carner:]
She could be my little freckled-face fidgeter, me but miniature
Sleeping on the sofa 'til she tackles and I tickle her, the whisperer
Uh, I could be your listener, telling me your stories
But I'm showing her a signature, the scribbler
Saying that she's finished but I tell her eat her spinach
And she'll see the sky's the limit, trust
'Cause when we're with it I can feel there ain't no limit
Just be free, me and my sister, I can see the skies are limitless
Uh, I feel her brush her hand across my cheek 'til I speak
I yawn and say "Good morning", keep her sweet, squeeze her deep
'Til she giggles, starts to wriggle in the sheet
Then she disappears and sweeps me off my feet, I need to eat
Uh, I'm reminded of the handshakes
Remember that I promised her some pancakes
So I stagger to the stove and start to stand braze
See, I'mma make 'em like my Nan makes

[Kwes.:]
I see you perching on the corner of the weeping window pane
You're growing up fast just like the flora
The world is yours, come shine or rain

[Loyle Carner:]
I could be your freckled-face figure, her but bigger
Shelter her from school when all the snitches start to snigger
I'll be sticking with her, hold her close and deeper within her
She would better me reading the recipe while cooking dinner
My little sinner wander walking in the park
Put her to bed then end up talking 'til it's dark
She spins a web and I get caught up in the laugh
I should go but though I know I shouldn't ask
See, my sisters like, "Nah, there's one more task"
I ain't bored of one, I'm laying with her 'til the morning come
More begun, I'mma warm her like the morning sun
"Good morning, Ben", again, we talk until the morning's done
Uh, and I'm reminded of the handshakes
Remember that I promised her some pancakes
So I stagger to the stove, start to stand braze
See, I'mma make 'em like my Nan makes

[Kwes.:]
I see you perching on the corner of the weeping window pane
You're growing up fast just like the flora
The world is yours, come shine or rain
Whilst you're here beside me
Just know I'm only one pancake away
You'll know where to find me
Any time, any place

  3. G.... D....

    Carner still hasn’t been recognised for how good he is, he’s so much better than so many other rappers and yet, he doesn’t get enough recognition

  4. S.... D....

    Rappers be talking about money and bit***s in order to get clicks, it's nice when you find an artist who rhymes from the heart. BTW, I'M A SMLL YOUTUBER, that makes funny videos (well, I''ll leave that for you to decide). If you free time, a visit to my channel would mean the world to me. Have a great day.

  5. C.... G....

    Love this song and I always come back to it every few months for the last 4 years but.. that is not a pancake. More like some sort of crepe, bordering tortilla lol. Pancake is thick and fluffy with butter and only made perfect with syrup!

  29. a.... j....

    Trying to find this song since forever.

  30. p.... t....

    the only tune taht actuaually made me cry...im 48...ive seen shit....olve what you do lyle...please dont stop...p.s. my son is now a big fan.....his name is finley tress....please give him a big up.... he a ctusllly hit me for gettting another artist into his head

  31. C.... V....

    this song has such high meaning to me and every time I listen to it I cry. A few years back a lost my brother to an accident and not only was he my brother, he was also my best friend and he would look after me all the time, and everything Loyle is describing in his lyrics is exactly the things we would do. Especially the part where Loyle says "Uh, I'm reminded of the handshakes
    Remember that I promised her some pancakes
    So I stagger to the stove and start to stand braze
    See, I'mma make 'em like my Nan makes" every weekend my brother and I would make pancakes and he would try his hardest to teach me as we got the recipe of my grandma, and every time we were saying goodbye to one another we had a special handshake just for saying goodbye. and the saddest thing is i never did the handshake the last time i saw before he died.
