Iron & Wine - Valley Clouds Lyrics
Why don't we go slow below the Valley Clouds
Our edges worn round and sacred now
All in time, all promises were not the same
We left flowers in the field and our tears were plain
It'll baptize your skin until your music is tender
Tender as trees
For the truth we believed
It's the wind we remember
We were overcome
Spinning in the wheels
Hitting bottom in the wellspring mud
Crying to the cold until we felt the sun
Home was up a hill but our weary legs could run
When we closed our eyes
We could see the serpent
And the savior laying side by side
Heaven was a corner where we tried to hide
Our running would be long and our river would be wild
Feel this flag
Let's ring another freedom bell
Our backs were to the sound but its sermon held
All things wild
Draw cups until the water's cold
Our memories are Christ and our hearts are clothes
Bend to the wind it'll baptize our skin
Until our music is tender
Tender is trees for the tears when we leave
It's the wind we'll remember
We were overcome
Spinnin' in the wheels
In the bottom of the wellspring mud
Cryin' to the cold till we feel the sun
Home is up a hill where our weary legs will run
When we close our eyes
See the serpent and her favorite savior laying side by side
Every heaven only you and I could find
Our running would be long and our river will be wild
Bells come back
We'll name a star we know all night
What valley is our claim when our coin is sky

Why aren't more people watching and listening to this !!
Saw them live in Dallas last month! Such a great duo
Just bought this after I heard it on the radio yesterday! Can't stop listening to it, I already learned most of the lyrics!
I herd this on the radio to, ABC Australia. had the same affect on me to , added to my favorites
I love this song
Can't believe six people actually dislike this song - Deaf muppets with ears sewn on.
you've trickled down into the most obscure reaches of the internet. you'll never guess where the other messages are hidden.
anything Iron and Wine is awesome! thanks muchachos.
It's great when Sam actually sings his songs instead of annoyingly whispering them. Good stuff
hurkamur1 you know some people actually get angry/upset when he actually sings instead of wispering. Same as when he uses more instruments in a song that just a guitar. But, people are idiots. He has an incredible singing voice
Omg. Even though I dedicaded this day to buckley, I still had to listen to this :'D
Well, very relaxing song.
