Lovesong of the Buzzard Lyrics & Tabs by Iron & Wine

Lovesong of the Buzzard

guitar chords lyrics

Iron & Wine

In the failing light of the afternoon
Lucy in the shade of the dogwood blooms
Yesterday, the solace of a poison fish

Tomorrow I'll be kissing on her blood red lips
And no one is the savior they would like to be
The love song of the buzzard in the dogwood tree
With a train of horses laughing through the traffic light
And the cradle's unimaginative sense of time
Springtime and the promise of an open fist
A tattoo of a flower on a broken wrist
Lucy tells me jokingly to wipe her brow
With a pocket map to heaven, and the sun goes down
