Iron & Wine - Gra** Widows lyrics

We found each other blown between the trees Waning moons wanting to be swallowed by the sea Like we finally saw the colors of the world We grew the garden snake within the weeds Laid each other long across a flat backstreet Like we finally saw the colors of the world We felt the sun leave us for the west Little lips always folding farther from the breast Like we finally saw the colors of the world We ran a white flag up the mast Puckered up like a widow dreaming in the gra** Like we finally saw the colors of the world Like we saw black Like we saw black and blue You pressed a pillow full of snow on my bruise Like we saw black sponsored links Like we saw God green too You saw it awful but it's over too soon Like we saw black Running around red ripe vines I find you in the folds of lonely red night Like we saw black Lying in golden white Lonely so you tried to love me alright We threw our money to the river stones Led each other through the woods to wander back alone Like we finally saw the colors of the world We let the taste linger in the mouth South Chicago never gave us more to sing about Like we finally saw the colors of the world
