Iron & Wine - Cinder and Smoke lyrics

Give me your hand The dog in the garden road Is covered in mud And dragging your mother's clothes Cinder and smoke The snake in the basement found The juniper shade The farmhouse is burning down Give me your hand And take what you will tonight I'll give it as fast And high as the flame will rise Cinder and smoke Some whispers around the trees The juniper bends As if you were listening Give me your hand Your mother is drunk as all The firemen shake A photo from father's aunt Cinder and smoke You'll ask me to pray for rain With ash in your mouth You'll ask it to burn again
