Each Coming Night
Iron & Wine
Will you say when I'm gone away:
"My lover came to me and we'd lay
In rooms unfamiliar but until now"
Will you say to them when I'm gone away:
"I loved your son for his sturdy arms
We both learned to cradle then live without"
Will you say when I'm gone away:
"Your father's body was judgement day
We both dove and rose to the riverside"
Will you say to me when I'm gone:
"Your face has faded but lingers on
Because light strikes a deal with each coming night"
