Red sky morning, lovers warning
Oh I know that promise you wear, well it ain't for me
Shallow river, shining within her
Flood it all, drown the crops, but just please don't swallow me
Settle down (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still
May the whole sky fall
May it all come down
Wasted all for the title
Wasted all for the crown
Keep your distance, make resistance
Stay the course when you falter and don't you think of me
Glowing ember, growing within her
Burn it all, raze the field, but just please don't swallow me
May the whole sky fall
May it all come down
Wasted all for the truth
For the fool in her wedding gown
Let her leave my sight
Make her leave my mind
Bring it down on my head
If these sins are mine
Call it down on my head
For these sins are mine
Settle down (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still
Let her go (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still
Lovely lady, no one's baby
Keep your chains off the ground and don't you think of me
