Iron & Wine dearest foresaken

Select language to translate this lyric

To my dearest foresaken
Who the earth now has taken
Emptied, the bottle drains no more
It is true that I loved you
Despite the harm that I owed you
Wash us, the river has you boy
Here on the eve of too long
Where you'll think I have done wrong
Waking in fear of you no more
I'll put my trust in the savior
Feeling forces of nature
Strength of the stone may tide you boy
To my dearest foresaken
Dearest vow I have broken
Pray of your angry hands no more
Put my trust in the savior
River may have me later
Sleep at my lost love for you boy
