lirik lagu two hungry blackbirds – iron & wine

lovers accustomed to tragedy
see every kiss in the window across the street
breezes and blessings p-ssing by, ah ooh-oh

i’m in the shade of the dogwood tree
not the one where you told your name to me
two hungry blackbirds land near by, ah ooh-oh

if i could be over you when the sky starts falling
would you be happy under me?
if i could be under you if the earth was burning
could you be trusted over me?

spoke to a mother whose baby drowned
gave me advice, or a rumor she once heard:
“heaven’s a distance, not a place,” ah ooh-oh

gave her an ear from the corn we grew
you were away but she gave her thanks to you
that was a year ago come may, ah ooh-oh

if i could be over you when the sky starts falling
would you be smothered under me?
if i could be under you if the earth was burning
would you be cryin’ over me?

i could hear kids in the yard next door
cats in the brush when the calendar fell down
wait by the shade-tree one more year, ah ooh-oh

poetry tempered with tragedy
tempted and pulled when you cry upon my sleeve
two flocks of blackbirds meet the air

- iron wine
