Singers and the Endless Song - Iron & Wine[00:00:00]

When we all ran back into the briars[00:00:17]

We told our children about the foreign shore[00:00:20]

When we threw our boots into the fire[00:00:23]

We told them all about the tug of war[00:00:26]

Gonna tell them about the seed and the shovel[00:00:28]

About the prison and the promised land[00:00:31]

Gonna tell them about the dream of the devil[00:00:34]

About the hurting and the healing hand that hand[00:00:36]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:00:49]

For the singers and the endless song[00:00:52]

When we held our words up in the mirror[00:01:00]

We told our children how to hold their tongues[00:01:03]

When we held our heads beneath the river[00:01:06]

We told them all about the iron lung[00:01:08]

Gonna tell them about the sins of the father[00:01:11]

About the junkie and the jubilee[00:01:14]

Gonna tell them about the roots in the water[00:01:17]

About the killing in the quiet line of trees[00:01:19]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:01:32]

For the singers and the endless song[00:01:35]

All our morning kisses in the covers[00:01:43]

And told our children what 'worthy' means[00:01:46]

And then you wrapped your arms around another[00:01:48]

And told them what was worth a pile of beans[00:01:51]

Gonna tell them about the call of the ocean[00:01:54]

About the singers and the endless song[00:01:57]

Gonna tell them about the body[00:01:59]

And the motion[00:02:01]

And how the music never lasts too long too long[00:02:02]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:02:15]

For the singers and the endless song[00:02:18]

About the low lit alley[00:02:20]

And the wedding bed[00:02:21]

About the first born sucker[00:02:22]

And the spider's web[00:02:24]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:02:26]

For the singers and the endless song[00:02:29]

About the mind and the muscle[00:02:31]

And the weary mile[00:02:32]

About the heart and the hustle[00:02:34]

And the empty sky[00:02:35]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:02:37]

For the singers and the endless song[00:02:40]

About the tangled up truth in the perfect teeth[00:02:42]

About the pilgrim and the picking[00:02:45]

Through the chaff and wheat[00:02:46]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:02:48]

For the singers and the endless song[00:02:51]

About the butterfly kiss[00:02:53]

And the call for blood[00:02:54]

About the pig and the preacher[00:02:56]

And the holy mud[00:02:57]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:02:59]

For the singers and the endless song[00:03:02]

About the breeze in the summer[00:03:04]

And the nose will know[00:03:05]

About the sleep through the winter[00:03:07]

When the cold wind blows[00:03:08]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:03:10]

For the singers and the endless song[00:03:13]

About the lame duck lion[00:03:15]

And the thorny crown[00:03:16]

About the proud punk mule[00:03:17]

And the heavy plow[00:03:19]

Cause the music never lasts too long[00:03:21]

For the singers and the endless song[00:03:23]

About the sunburned belly[00:03:26]

And the mother's moon[00:03:27]

About the end of the music coming way too soon[00:03:28]
