Iron & Wine - Winter Prayers Lyrics






Well it's cold and you're bored
From counting the Smart cars on 94
When you dream, you're back home
But the lakeside don't trust you to walk alone

Hollow trees talk offhand
All the neckties are toasting with empty cans
And you know why she's gone
Like the clothes in the river drifting on

Slide down south
Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you
Like smoke falls out her red mouth

Well she left you the holes
That tracks in the backyard December snow
But those sad souvenirs
They end at the fence line and disappear

Why'd you follow her there
Milwaukee's a deaf ear for winter prayers
There's no night, there's no day
With only hope in your pocket and hell to pay

Slide down south
When once in a while your confidence leaves you
Like smoke falls out her red mouth

    Well it's cold, and you're bored
    From counting the smart cars on 94
    When you dream you're back home
    But the lakeside won't trust you to walk alone

    Hollow trees, talk of hand
    All the neckties are toasting with empty cans
    And you know why she's gone
    Clothes in the river, drifting on
    Slide down south
    When once in a while your confidence leaves you
    Like smoke falls out her red mouth

    Well she left you the holes
    The tracks in the back yard, December snow
    But those sad souvenirs
    They end at the fence line, and they disappear

    Why you'd follow her there?
    Milwaukee's a deaf ear for winter prayers
    There's no night, there's no day
    With only hope in your pocket, and hell to pay

    Slide down south
    When once in a while your confidence leaves you
    Like smoke falls out her red mouth
