iron & wine – new mexico’s no breeze lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
god gave you red light
on every green road sign
when you left santa fe
we were two string beans
and you were too nineteen
to be blowin’ away

[hook]
there were thieves in the square
hidin’ hands and hidin’ prayers
and all their mumblin’
nothing left you alone
tangled heels and tiny vireos
singin’ something

[verse 2]
stuck with her pin curls
your mama was scared of the world
it was born with a bang
i was steppin’ on sea sh-lls
by the old mission san miguel
when a bell tower rang

[hook]
and the sky fell apart
heard the rain, i heard your heart
and what was spoken
’cause nothin’ bends for a name
nothin’ wants to stay the same
and nothin’s broken

[bridge]
when your friends and their friends
p-ss the pipe or tie the knot
honeymoon music played
in the drive-thru parking lot
i woke up by your bed
you were wanderin’ around the yard
window wide as a day
but the sun just hit too hard

[verse 3]
in a home void of doors
mama’s house slowed a little more
in the evenin’
naked boys throwin’ stones
beady eyes and desert bones
they saw you leavin’

[verse 4]
god gave you bobwhites
and the good kind of black night
when you left santa fe
new mexico’s no breeze
and you were so nineteen
you were blowin’ away
