Passing Afternoon
Iron And Wine.
Yeah, well here it is. It's easy but still nice to have all typed up.
Love always,
D E A D
There are times that walk from you Like some passing afternoon
A E D E
Summer warmed the open window Of her honeymoon
D E A D
And she chose a yard to burn But the ground remembers her
A E D E
Wooden spoons, her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms
D E A D
There are things that drift away Like our endless numbered days
A E D E
Autumn blew the quilt right off the Perfect bed she made
D E A D
And she's chosen to believe In the hymns her mother sings
A E D E
Sunday pulls it's children from the Piles of fallen leaves
D E A D
There are sailing ships that pass All our bodies in the grass
A E D E
Springtime calls her children 'til she Let's 'em go at last
D E A D
And she's chosen where to be Though she's lost her wedding ring
A E D E
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds
D E A D
There are things we can't recall Blind as night that finds us all
A E D E
Winter tucks her children in her Fragile china dolls
D E A D
But my hands remember hers Rolling around the shady ferns
A E D E
Naked arms are secrets still like Songs I'd never learned
D E A D
There are names across the sea Only now I do believe
A E D E
Sometimes with the window closed She'll sit and think of me
D E A D
But she'll mend his tattered clothes And they'll kiss as if they know
A E D E
A baby sleeps in all our bones So scared to be alone
