"Calm On The Valley" lyrics - IRON & WINE

There's a rooster, a hen
A black dog by my kid in the yard
And I've tattooed the head
Of the woman I've wed on my arm
We sit on the lawn
And she winks and she yawns at the sound
That the setting sun makes as it lights up the lake
And goes down

[Chorus:]
And you ease my troubles with your hands
Like the night puts a calm on the valley
Moved my shaking castle from the sand
When you gave me your soul for to marry

The cicadas in tune ain't too noisy for you but too fast
As the night eases in
Like dark wine on our skin and the grass
Now the moon's high above
You're the woman I've loved for so long
It's the last goodnight kiss
And these moments I miss when you're gone

[Chorus:]
And you ease my troubles with your hands
Like the night puts a calm on the valley
Moved my shaking castle from the sand
When you gave me your soul for to marry
