Iron & Wine - Elizabeth Lyrics

Iron & Wine Lyrics

"Elizabeth"

Won't you sit down for a while?
I been admiring your smile
Now your eyes curl when you grin
Over your tonic and gin

This woman is
Harder than the frozen ground
We don't trust a soul
Soft enough to have a crush
We give up control
Elizabeth do you see me tonight?

I'll be the first to admit
That I spend my time trying to fit
In circles that go from my heart
They're gonna tear that apart

This woman is
Harder than the frozen ground
We don't trust a soul
Soft enough to have a crush
We give up control
Elizabeth do you see me tonight?
