He Lays in the Reins Songtext
von Iron & Wine

One more drink tonight
As your gray stallion rests
Where he lays in the reins
For all of the speed and the strength he gave


One more kiss tonight
From some tall stable girl
She′s like grace from the earth
When you're all tuckered out and tame

One more tired thing
The gray moon on the rise
When your want from the day
Makes you to curse in your sleep at night

One more gift to bring
We may well find you laid
Like your steed in his reins
Tangled too tight and too long to fight
