Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The night fell with bicycle bells
The dark had wooden teeth, oh, we broke on up to hill country
The air was thin and sweet
Lord, the air was thin and sweet
[Verse 2]
She held onto my coat that night like a kid lost in her sleeves
Oh, we warmed the ground, we hushed our sound
We slept on walkin' feet
Lord, we slept on walkin' feet
[Chorus]
Oh, darlin', pardon me, can you help me remember?
When we were all flyin' free
We were dust from our bodies, and we were flicker and flame
Yeah, we burned till the morning, darlin', pardon me
[Verse 3]
Off in the night, you can hear 'em bright
The sirens of the sea
Oh, and city birds and alley girls
They all just sing for free
Oh, they all just sing for free
[Chorus]
Oh, darlin', pardon me, but do I look familiar?
When we were just larkspur and leaves
We were strung through the tether
And we were all silver and stone
We were the lust of the miners, darlin', pardon me
[Bridge]
That sky glowed all calico like phosphor in the sea
To the ground we fall, she owns us all
Kings and boys and beast
Oh, kings and boys and beast
[Outro]
Oh, darlin', pardon me, but do I look familiar?
When we were just flyin' free
And we burned from a freight train
And we were some flicker of truth in the smile of a salesman
And we were all buried jewels 'neath the grass in the suburbs
And we were all livin' proof, oh, darlin', pardon me
