Stranger Lay Beside Me - Iron & Wine (铁与酒乐团)[00:00:00]
I was bad I was good[00:00:56]
Running wild through the woods[00:00:57]
While the branches above me were burning[00:00:59]
I was breathing the smoke[00:01:02]
I was starting to choke[00:01:04]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:01:05]
I was lost I was found[00:01:09]
You were hanging around[00:01:11]
Moving slowly but headed for glory[00:01:12]
I was healed I was hurt[00:01:16]
I was sinning in church[00:01:18]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:01:19]
I was snuffed I was stoked[00:01:36]
There was love in us both[00:01:38]
And a buzzard was circling the valley[00:01:40]
I was chaff I was wheat[00:01:43]
I was bone I was meat[00:01:45]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:01:47]
I was close I was far[00:01:50]
Feral cats in the car[00:01:52]
And a crack in the roof that kept dripping[00:01:54]
I was numb when I smiled[00:01:57]
I was built and defiled[00:01:59]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:02:01]
And the moon rose again[00:02:04]
And the snake shed its skin[00:02:06]
Every hand in the city was shaking[00:02:07]
We were kissed we were clawed[00:02:11]
Given just to be robbed[00:02:13]
Cause we needed the love we were making[00:02:14]
I was present and gone[00:02:23]
Said farewell and so long[00:02:24]
Then came back cause the street was too empty[00:02:26]
I was nursing a bruise[00:02:29]
I thought for sure it was you[00:02:31]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:02:33]
I was strong I was weak[00:03:04]
All the hens were asleep[00:03:06]
And the hawk's only kind cause he's hungry[00:03:07]
I was sold I was bought[00:03:11]
I was promised a lot[00:03:12]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:03:14]
I was wrong I was right[00:03:17]
You were poised in the light[00:03:19]
Both as evil as ever and holy[00:03:21]
I was bitten and chewed[00:03:24]
Bound and gagged on the truth[00:03:26]
When that stranger lay beside me[00:03:28]
I was soft I was hard[00:03:45]
The sky heavy with stars[00:03:47]
Never meant to surrender their meaning[00:03:48]
I was love I was hate[00:03:52]
Stuffed and licking my plate[00:03:54]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:03:55]
I was chided and cheered[00:03:59]
We were reeking with fear[00:04:00]
That the world might return for it's mercy[00:04:02]
I was mended and torn[00:04:05]
I was killed and reborn[00:04:07]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:04:09]
And the moon rose again[00:04:12]
And the snake shed it's skin[00:04:14]
And the back of the city was breaking[00:04:16]
We both took to it well[00:04:19]
Blind and feeling ourselves[00:04:21]
But we needed the love we were making[00:04:23]
I was captured and free[00:04:38]
The sun set through the trees[00:04:40]
And time beat on the length of my body[00:04:42]
I was taught I was teased[00:04:45]
In the nature of things[00:04:47]
When a stranger lay beside me[00:04:48]
