Iron Wine - He Lays In The Reins lyrics

One more drink tonight as your gray stallion rests

Where he lays in the reins

For all of the speed and the strength he gave

One more kiss tonight from some tall stable girl

She's like grace from the earth

When you're all tuckered out and tame

One more tired thing the gray moon on the rise

When your want from the day

Makes you to curse in your sleep at night

One more gift to bring we may well find you laid

Like your steed in his reins

Tangled too tight and too long to fight
