Dearest Forsaken
Iron & Wine
To my dearest forsaken
Who the earth now has taken
Empty, the bottle drains no more
It is true that I loved you
Despite the harm now on you
Washes, the river has you boy
Here on the eve of too long
Where you'll think I have done wrong
Waking in fear of you no more
I'll put my trust in the savior
Of human forces of nature
Strength of the stump I tied you boy
To my dearest forsaken
Dearest vow I have broken
Afraid of your angry hands no more
I'll put my trust in the savior
River may have me later
Sleep with my lost love for you boy
