letra de passing afternoon (demo) - iron & wine

Loading...

[verse 1]
there are times that walk from you
like some p-ssing afternoon
summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
and she chose a yard to burn
but the ground remembers her
wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms

[chorus 1]
there are things that drift away
like our endless numbered days
autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
and she’s chosen to believe
in the hymns her mother sings
sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves

[verse 2]
there are sailing ships that p-ss
all our bodies in the gr-ss
springtime calls her children ’til she lets them go at last
and she’s chosen where to be
though she’s lost her wedding ring
somewhere near her misplaced jar of bougainvillea seeds

[chorus 2]
there are things we can’t recall
blind as night that finds us all
winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls
but my hands remember hers
rolling around the shaded ferns
naked arms, her secrets still like songs i’d never learned

[verse 3]
there are names across the sea
only now i do believe
sometimes, with the windows closed, she’ll sit and think of me
but she’ll mend his tattered clothes
and they’ll kiss as if they know
a baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone
