Judgement Songtext
von Iron & Wine

Day walks out and there′s no sound
There's a candle burnin′ by me now
Light enough for to see the things beyond me

Door is wide as her eyes on me
So the night comes in and starts to breathe
The only name that I really know

Tell me, dear, do you think of me
At a drop of rain, or when you see
Wind, 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 ′em back

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, hmm

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, ooh
Ooh, ooh
