Lirieke: Iron & Wine. Other. Promising Light.

Time and all you gave

I was the jerk who preferred the sea

To tussling in the waves

Tugging your skirt, singing please, please, please



But now I see love

Tracked on the floor where you walked outside

Now I see love

Looking for you in this other girl's eyes



Time and all you took

Only my freedom to fuck the whole world

Promising not to look

Promising light on the sidewalk girls



But now I see love

There in your car where I said those things

Now I see love

Tugging your skirt, singing please, please, please



Time and all you gave

There on your cross that I never saw

Well beyond the waves

Dunking my head when I heard you call



But now I see love

There in the sea where you pinched my leg

Now I see love

There on your side of my empty bed
