iron & wine - autumn town leaves lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
in this autumn town where the leaves can fall
on either side of the garden wall
we laugh all night to keep the embers glowing

[verse 2]
some are leaping free from their moving cars
stacking stones ’round their broken hearts
waving down any wind that might come blowing

[chorus 1]
mice move out when the field is cut
serpents curl when the sun comes up
songbirds only end up where they’re going

[verse 3]
some get rain and some get snow
some want love and some want gold
i just want to see you in the morning

[chorus 2]
dogs lay down in the evening heat
fish do worse when they leave the sea
songbirds only end up where they’re going

[verse 4]
in this autumn town where the lights can change
some get mercy and some get blame
some get lost when they feel the river flowing

[verse 5]
it’s all holy smoke and the flame dies fast
we hold our hats while the days fly past
cold wind comes and we wave but it keeps going

[chorus 3]
fathers, sons and holy ghosts
all come back or they all come close
songbirds only end up where they’re going

[verse 6]
some get hard and some go home
some want flesh and some want bone
i just want to see you in the morning

[outro]
yeah, i just want to see you in the morning
