The Handsome Family - When You Whispered

Up on the drawbridge when we stood in the wind My car left running, the doors wide open The wind spread ripples along the river waves Your hands in my hair as the drawbridge swayed You leaned in closer as the sun fell away A plastic bag trembled caught in the waves When you whispered what you whispered in my ear The breeze at the shoreline bent down thet rushes The sparrows cried out from the waving willows And even the minnows in the muddy shallows Even the frogs calling from the shadows Even the wind leaned in to listen When you leaned in closer, your hands in my hair When you whispered what you whispered in my ear
