Song | House by the Sea |
Artist | Iron & Wine |
Album | The Shepherd's Dog |
[01:10.01] | There is a house by the sea |
[01:12.93] | Two jealous sisters they're waiting for me |
[01:17.42] | And one is laid on the floor |
[01:21.38] | And one is changing the locks on the doors |
[01:25.61] | And I've been buying the time on my knees |
[01:34.30] | And I've been selling their blankets to bleed (on) |
[01:42.83] | Around the house by the sea |
[01:45.63] | The scent of roses and raspberry leaves |
[01:49.80] | And there is smoke in my clothes |
[01:53.96] | Too much time with just smoke in my nose |
[01:58.87] | And I've been making the meaning they lack |
[02:08.78] | And I've been burning that book they come back too |
[02:32.25] | There is a house by the sea |
[02:35.67] | And an ocean between it and me |
[02:39.33] | And like the shape of a wave |
[02:43.11] | The jealous sisters will sing on my grave |
[02:49.11] | And I've been living to run where they led |
[02:57.51] | And I've been dying to rise from their bed |
[03:04.22] | And I've been sparing my neck from their chain |
[03:12.72] | And they've been changing the sound of my name |
[03:21.30] | And I've been swimming to them in my sleep |
[03:29.88] | And I've been dreaming our love and our freedom |
[01:10.01] | There is a house by the sea |
[01:12.93] | Two jealous sisters they' re waiting for me |
[01:17.42] | And one is laid on the floor |
[01:21.38] | And one is changing the locks on the doors |
[01:25.61] | And I' ve been buying the time on my knees |
[01:34.30] | And I' ve been selling their blankets to bleed on |
[01:42.83] | Around the house by the sea |
[01:45.63] | The scent of roses and raspberry leaves |
[01:49.80] | And there is smoke in my clothes |
[01:53.96] | Too much time with just smoke in my nose |
