Iron & Wine - Walking Far From Home songtekst

Je score:




I was walking far from home 

Where the names were not burned along the wall 

Saw a building, high as heaven 

But the door was so small, door was so small 



I saw rainclouds, little babies 

And a bridge that had tumbled to the ground 

I saw sinners making music 

And I dreamt of that sound, dreamt of that sound 



I was walking far from home 

But I carried your letters all the while 

I saw lovers in a window 

Whisper want me like time, want me like time 



I saw sickness bloom in fruit trees 

I saw blood and a bit of it was mine 

I saw children in a river 

But their lips were still dry, lips were still dry 



I was walking far from home 

And I found your face mingled in the crowd 

Saw a boat-full of believers 

Sail off talking too loud, talking too loud 



I saw sunlight on the water 

Saw a bird fall like a hammer from the sky 

An old woman on a speed train 

She was closing her eyes, closing her eyes 



I saw flowers on a hillside 

And a millionaire pissing on the lawn 

Saw a prisoner take a pistol 

And say join me in song, join me in song 



Saw a car crash in the country 

Where the prayers run like weeds along the road 

I saw strangers stealing kisses 

Giving only their clothes, only their clothes 



Saw a white dog chase it's tail 

And a pair of hearts carved into a stone 

I saw kindness and an angel 

Crying "take me back home, take me back home" 



Saw a highway, saw an ocean 

I saw widows in the temple to the Lord 

Naked dancers in the city 

How they spoke for us all, spoke for us all 



I saw loaded linen tables 

And a motherless colt then it was gone 

I saw hungry brothers waiting 

With the radio on, radio on 



I was walking far from home 

Where the names were not burned along the wall 

Saw a wet road form a circle 

And it came like a call, came like a call from the Lord
