Weathered and Worn Lyrics

Eyes like a lake in the sunlight

Green and gold, love I've been told

To keep what I hold

So I keep you as close to

My heart as the mountains

Keep the light of day at bay

Until they give it away

I came weathered and worn

And I broke down your door

You've got a big cross to bear

Without me in your hair

You said I make you feel like a child

You make the devil so meek and mild

So can I get close to you

I'm yours through and through

I pulled up the pavement

Hear the bullfrogs from the basement

The baby's breath is blooming, love

I'm right by your side

Rocks in the river

Shakin' with a shiver

I take a breath and hold my chest

And I feel just fine

I came weathered and worn

And I broke down your door

You've got a big cross to bear

Without me in your hair

You said I make you feel like a child

You make the devil so meek and mild

So can I get close to you

I'm yours through and through
