St. VincentAbout
Quite possibly the purest love song St. Vincent has ever recorded. And it’s dedicated to her mother.
St. Vincent shared with NPR’s All Songs Considered:
My mother got sick earlier, about a year ago, and she’s all better now, but we had a very scary moment. So I actually wrote that song for my moth...
I Prefer Your Love Lyrics
[Intro]
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
Little baby on your knees 'cause the world has got you down
[Verse 1]
Name-tagged tourists, sick at the sight of them
Tight-walking the sidewalk in spite of them
As my headache moves from east to west
Mother, won't you open your arms and
Forgive me of all these bad thoughts?
I'm blinded to the faces in the fog
[Pre-Chorus]
But all the good in me is because of you
It's true
[Chorus]
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
Little baby on your knees 'cause the world has got you down
[Verse 2]
King-sized country wearing your worries out
Headless heroes heaped by the pylons
As a careless sun sets on the west
Sure as mother licking her finger to
Wipe the blush and smudge from my cheek and
Wonder what will become of your little one
[Pre-Chorus]
But all the good in me is because of you
It's true
[Chorus]
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
I, I prefer your love to Jesus
Little baby on your knees 'cause the world has got you down

What did St. Vincent say about "I Prefer Your Love"?
I started writing this record right after the coast was clear, so in that way I was really checked in with myself and my senses of empathy and compassion. I don’t mean it arrogantly, but the music part is very easy for me. I could write music all day, but having a song where it feels like a ghost is...
