Iron & Wine - Naked as We Came

She says 'wake up, it's no use pretending'

I'll keep stealing, breathing her.

Birds are leaving over autumn's ending

One of us will die inside these arms

Eyes wide open, naked as we came

One will spread our ashes 'round the yard.

She says 'If I leave before you, darling

Don't you waste me in the ground'

I lay smiling like our sleeping children

One of us will die inside these arms

Eyes wide open, naked as we came

One will spread our ashes round the yard.
