Promising Light

Time & all you gave I was the jerk who preferred the sea To tussling in the waves Tugging your skirt, singing please, please, please But now I see love Tracked on the floor where you walked outside Now I see love Looking for you in this other girl's eyes Time & all you took Only my freedom to fuck the whole world Promising not to look Promising light on the sidewalk girls But now I see love There in your car where I said those things Now I see love Tugging your skirt, singing please, please, please Time & all you gave There on your cross that I never saw Well beyond the waves Dunking my head when I heard you call But now I see love There in the scab where you pinched my leg Now I see love There on your side of my empty bed --- Promising Light - Iron and Wine
