Lyrics Judgement - Iron & Wine

Judgement

Day walks out and there’s no sound
There’s a candle burning by me now
Light enough for to see the things beyond me Door is wide as a rise on me So the night comes in and starts to breath
The only name that I really know
Tell me did he think of me At a drop of rain, or when you see
When 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
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 him back
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Days walk on and when there’s no sound
I go straight to you and find you down
Kneeling 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
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
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
