Lyric of The Day #2

To finish off this Sam Beam morning here is a lyric that has stuck with me throughout the morning from “The Trapeze Swinger,” off of “Around The Well.” Sam Beam you are certainly a genius and I just want to take this early afternoon moment to thank you for this wonderful song. It is rapidly becoming one of my favorites.

“Please, remember me
Fondly
I heard from someone you’re still pretty
And then
They went on to say
That the pearly gates
Had some eloquent graffiti
Like ‘We’ll meet again’
And ‘F*ck the man’
And ‘Tell my mother not to worry’
And angels with their gray
Handshakes
Were always done in such a hurry”

                  – “The Trapeze Swinger,” by Iron & Wine, off of “Around The Well”
