Iron & Wine - Resurrection Fern

I love this song with Iron & Wine (Sam Beam), the lyrics is amazingly beautiful, see below.



In our days we will live
Like our ghosts will live
Pitching glass at the cornfield crows
And folding clothes

Like stubborn boys across the road
We'll keep everything
Grandma's gun, and the black bear claw
That took her dog

And when sister Laurie says "Amen,"
We won't hear anything
The ten-car train will take that word
That fledgling bird

And the falling house across the way
It'll keep everything
The baby's breath, our bravery wasted
And our shame

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Both our tender bellies wound in bailing wire
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Than the oak tree and its Resurrection Fern

In our days we will say
What our ghosts will say
We gave the world what it saw fit
And what'd we get?

Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
We'll see everything
In the timid shade of the autumn leaves
And the buzzard's wing

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Our tender bellies all wound around in bailing wire
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Than the oak tree and its Resurrection Fern

Iron & Wine and his charming personality

Sam Beam aka Iron & Wine will be playing in Stockholm in february next year, february will be a great month with both Iron & Wine and Band of Horses.
I am really looking forward to seeing and hopefully meeting Sam Beam, from what I've seen (on YouTube) and read he seems to be a really really charming, funny and loveable person.

Not the best recording I've seen, but it's a great song and I think it shows a bit of Sam Beams personality.





And here, a live version of one of the songs from Iron & Wines new album, being released in the beginning of next year if i remember it right. Sound so beautiful.
