Iron Wine Such Great Heights Lyrics

Such Great Heights Lyrics

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles



in our eyes are mirror images and when



we kiss they're perfectly aligned



and I have to speculate that God himself



did make us into corresponding shapes like



puzzle pieces from the clay



and true, it may seem like a stretch, but



its thoughts like this that catch my troubled



head when you're away when I am missing you to death



when you are out there on the road for



several weeks of shows and when you scan



the radio, I hope this song will guide you home







they will see us waving from such great



heights, "come down now," they'll say



but everything looks perfect from far away,



"come down now," but we'll stay...







I tried my best to leave this all on your



machine but the persistent beat it sounded



thin upon listening and



that frankly will not fly. you will hear



the shrillest highs and lowest lows with



the windows down when this is guiding you home







they will see us waving from such great



heights, "come down now," they'll say



but everything looks perfect from far away,



"come down now," but we'll stay...
