Iron & Wine - Rabbit Will Run songtekst

Je score:




Last I saw mother she rose from a chair 

When they caught me I'd just finished combing my hair 

'Cause a rabbit will rose, as a colt does along with the mare 

We've all learned the earth while we carried the throne 

We dove under the rivers and under our clothes 

Now I still have a prayer, as sure as my settling bones 



Last I saw mother she covered my ears 

When they caught me I offered the captain a beer 

'Cause a rabbit will run, and a lion has nothing to fear 

We bricked up the garden and oh, what it means 

And we've all kissed a virgin as if she were clean 

And I still have a prayer, despite all the colors I've seen 



And judgment is just like a cup that we share 

I'll jump over the wall and I'll wait for you there 

Well past the weeds and our vision of things to come 



We've all heard the rooster and all been denied 

And we've seen through the haze and the spit in our eyes 

And I still have a prayer, a well-weathered word to the wise 



Last I saw mother she smelled like a rose 

When they caught me the captain, he opened my nose 

'Cause a rabbit will run, and the wind takes a bird where it blows 

We all traded lovers and woke up alone 

And we clapped for the king, though our fingers were cold 

And I still have a prayer, one that I cannot control 



Once I saw mother, she acted surprised 

When they caught me the captain, he cried like a child 

'Cause a rabbit will run, and good dogs together go wild 

We all live in grace at the end of the day 

And we've armed all the children we thought we'd betrayed 

And I still have a prayer, but too few occasions to pray 



And judgment is just like a cup that we share 

I'll jump over the wall and wait for you there 

Well past the weeds and our visions of things to come 



And we've all found a reason for hiding the gun 

And we've helped out a few if we've hurt anyone 

And I still have a prayer and so be it, I've done what I've done 

Last I saw mother, she blew me a kiss 

When they caught me the cups caught the blood from my wrist 

'Cause a rabbit will run, and a pig has to lay in it's piss 

We've all given half to the hand in our face 

We've all taken a stone from the holiest place 

And I still have a prayer, and I've furthered the world in my wake
