tell me about it

Beautiful, simple song by Iron & Wine from ‘The L Word’ soundtrack.

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
