"Judgement" lyrics - IRON & WINE
Day walks out and there's no sound
There's a candle burnin' by me now
Light enough for to see the things beyond me
Door is wide as her eyes on me
So the night comes in and starts to breathe
The only name that I really know
Tell me dear, do you think of me
At a drop of rain, or when you see
Wind it rakes as it moves across the water
Judgement comes when I'm all alone
Like a spyglass on the furthest coast
Favored now that it's left behind
[Chorus:]
When you talk to me
You could swallow me
Nighttime brings me a place I fear
Where I hear your words and feel you near
Fingers only to find a frozen memory
Sometimes clothes chosen long ago
A direction down a gravel road
Makes you wish you could take 'em back
[Bridge:]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Days walk on and when there's no sound
I go straight to you and find you down
Kneelin' next to the water where I left you
Knee-deep now in the creek I made
From the landscape lost I want to save
Save it now or be punished more
[Chorus:]
When you talk to me
You could swallow me
Nighttime brings me a place I fear
Where I hear your words and feel you near
Fingers never to find a warmer memory
Sometimes friends we knew long ago
Or affections we set free to go
Find you right where you ran to hide
[Outro:]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
