Such Great Heights

Iron And Wine

I am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
and I have to speculate
that God himself did make us into corresponding
shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay
and true, it may seem like a stretch
but it's thoughts like this that catch my troubled head
when you're away, when I am missing you to death
when you are out there on the road
for several weeks of shows and when you scan the
radio I hope this song will guide you home

Chorus:
they will see us waving from such great heights
come down now, they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away
come down now, but we'll stay
I tried my best to leave
this all on your machine but the persistent beat, it
sounded thin upon listening
and that frankly will not fly
you will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows with the windows
down when this is guiding you home

Chorus
