Iron & Wine - Loaning Me Secrets Lyrics

Iron & Wine Lyrics

"Loaning Me Secrets"

One drop of poison
Spilled on your gown
One drop of danger
Set your legs running

Don't kiss a leper
By closing one eye
Don't give a hand
To the one you can't follow

But you know I say
Everything you gave to me
When we shared a bed
And you were loaning me secrets

Don't break the bottle
Stumbling around
Don't cut yourself
And bleed on a stranger

Keep looking forward
Chin in the air
I'll watch your back
From the far horizon

But just know I'll say
Everything you gave to me
When we shared a bed
And you were loaning me secrets
