Promising Light

Promising Light - Iron & Wine

Time and all you gave

I was a jerk who preferred the sea

To tussling in the waves

Tugging your skirt singing please please please

Now I see love

Dragged on the floor where you walked outside

Now I seek love

Looking for you in this other girl's eyes

Time and all you took

Only my freedom to f**k the whole world

Promising not to look

Promising light on the sidewalk girls

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 and all you gave

There on your cross that I never saw

Well beyond the waves

Dunking my head when I heard you call

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
