paroles de chanson Grace for Saints and Ramblers (Live) - Iron & Wine

There were banged up pens, stealing first base
Underneath a table, so we never said grace
Falling out of bed for the work day week
Kissing in the cracks of the flash flood tree
Button blossoms, blarin' Johnny Rotten
Chewed up and swallowed by the prophet we were tryin' follow
Bit too green we paid no tax on our quick romantic cul-de-sac

But it all came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I (down to you and I)

We were crashed out cars in our bark-old clothes
Rubbing on each other, rubbing ghost on ghost
Junked-up punks we were Jesus freaks
Weaving in and out of trouble wrapping 'round and 'round and 'round a leash
Sleepless dreamers and we were dooms day preachers
The message and the messenger, we were gun beneath the register
Sweet gum tree by the dug dunk tank
We could never give enough to the bad-luck bank
'Cause were hopeless sinners, and we were sweepstake winners
We danced with the farmer's daughter, capered with the corporate lawyers

All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I, you and I (down to you and I)

We were laughing in the light, hahaha, sugar in the shade
We were backstab handshakes made on faith
We were never out of time and we never entertained
Anybody said the habit of the wind was going to change
We were mistled misfits, and we were teething biscuits
We bodies full of penny wishes, parties full of pretty dishes
Side by side with the birds and bees
And we never sang grace and never ever took a knee
With the saints and ramblers and the movie star handlers
High above the aviary and underneath the cemetery

We never wondered why, 'cause the sun was in our eyes
We were seed for the field, we were grease for the wheel
We were drinking with the luminaries, we were eating with the visionaries

All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I (down to you and I)
All came down to you and I, you and I
Down to you and I (down to you and I)
