Iron & Wine - Sailor To Siren lyrics

This tenderness comes as a surprise Drinking where the riverbed was dry Trees in the wind trembling with love That morning light drew you out the door Mama didn't need you anymore She pointed in night but you saw the stars Brace yourself and nestle into me Bear it all like falling autumn leaves You don't even know me that well Now every blossom's ready to explode Rooted in the cracks along the road The world is a dream that we could freeze While distant water shows me where to run Papa let me know I'm not enough Took out the life left me the hope You sailor or the siren in the tide Trust the tiny ocean and besides You don't even know me that well Your song is warm and coming through the wall Hearts are only strangers after all You don't even know me that well
