Iron & Wine - Walking Far from Home lyrics

I was walking far from home Where the names were not burned along the wall Saw a building high as heaven But the door was so small, door was so small I saw rain clouds, little babies And a bridge that had tumbled to the ground I saw sinners making music And I dreamt of that sound, dreamt of that sound I was walking far from home But I carried your letters all the while I saw lovers in a window Whisper "want me like time, want me like time" I saw sickness, blooming fruit trees I saw blood and a bit of it was mine I saw children in a river But their lips were still dry, lips were still dry I was walking far from home And I found your face mingled in the crowd Saw a boatful of believers Sail off talking too loud, talking too loud I saw sunlight on the water Saw a bird fall like a hammer from the sky An old woman on a speed train She was closing her eyes, closing her eyes I saw flowers on a hillside And a millionaire pissing on the lawn Saw a prisoner take a pistol And say "join me in song, join me in song" Saw a car crash in the country Where the prayers run like weeds along the road I saw strangers stealing kisses Giving only their clothes, only their clothes Saw a white dog chase its tail And a pair of hearts carved into a stone I saw kindness and an angel Crying, "Take me back home, take me back home" Saw a highway, saw an ocean I saw widows in the temple to the law Naked dancers in the city And they spoke for us all, spoke for us all I saw loaded linen tables And a motherless colt then it was gone I saw hungry brothers waiting With a radio on, radio on I was walking far from home Where the names were not burned along the wall Saw a wet road form a circle And it came like a call, came like a call from the Lord Hoo, no Hoo, hoo
