Iron & Wine - Rattling Bone Lyrics

A skull and a jewel on a wooden cane
A rattling bone on a boat
On the waves you sail away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone

Whipping the pig until it broke the gate
A table and chair by the creek
Though his house was washed away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone

God is asleep in the bed we made
Suckling bitch on the porch
And no stick might draw away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone

Love in the shape of the close of day
Kissing the face in a dream
That I thought I tossed away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone

Hobble and wade in the love we gave
Passing your lip from the wine
That we raised then threw away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone

Chuckling lamb by the anchor weight
Shuddering wolf on a ship
On the waves you sail away
I will lay awake until all your power's gone
