Slow Black River Songtext
von Iron & Wine

Lost my watch, watch, and chain
But time′s not lost
This time we walk together
Beside the slow black river

Water-walking over mud
You whisper something
Something good in my ear
So I stop so I can hear

Darling, I'm the one to blame
I threw your watch and chain to where I don′t know
Inside the tall grass meadow


You'll forget, forget in time
Remember this
Your hand in mine forever
Beside the slow black river

Lost my watch, watch, and chain
To her today
But time, it has no meaning
When her and me are walking

Darling, I'm the one to blame
I love you still
And timeless now forever
Together by the river
