Track:Such Great Heights
"I am thinking it's a signThat the freckles in our eyesAre mirror images andWhen we kiss they're perfectly alignedAnd I have to speculateThat God himself did make us intoCorresponding shapes like puzzles piecesFrom the clayTrue, it may seem like a stretchBut it's thoughts like thisThat catch my troubled headWhen you're away, when I am missing you to deathWhen you were out there on the roadFor several weeks of showsAnd when you scan the radioI hope this song will guide you homeThey will see us waving from such great heights"Come down now," they'll sayBut everything looks perfect from far away"Come down now," but we'll stayI've tried my best to leaveThis all on your machineBut the persistent beatSounded thin upon listeningThat frankly will not flyYou will hear the shrillest highsAnd lowest lows with the windows downWhen this is guiding you homeThey will see us waving from such great heights"Come down now," they'll sayBut everything looks perfect from far away"Come down now," but we'll say..."Iron and Wine,
