Iron & Wine - Tree By The River Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Mary Anne, do you remember
  • the tree by the river
  • when we were seventeen?
  • Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer
  • and the mare in the pasture
  • pitch black and baring its teeth.
  • I recall the sun in our faces,
  • stuck and leaning on braces,
  • and being strangers to change.
  • Radio and the bones we found frozen,
  • and all the thorns and the roses
  • beneath your window pane.
  • Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world
  • to a potty-mouth girl,
  • a pretty pair of blue-eyed birds.
  • Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say.
  • But I wonder to who
  • what it is you're saying today.
  • Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world
  • to a potty-mouth girl,
  • a pretty pair of blue-eyed birds.
  • Time isn't kind or unkind, you liked to say.
  • But I wonder to who
  • what it is you're saying today.
  • Mary Anne, do you remember
  • the tree by the river
  • when we were seventeen?
  • Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon;
  • happy just to be with you,
  • and you were happy for me.
