Letra Baby center stage Iron & Wine

Baby center stage

(Verse)
Mama called you baby center stage,
She could really run her mouth.
Baton Rouge called you petit angel
And Birmingham had run you out.

(Chorus)
Doesn’t anybody see how scared you are?
There was a time I was running you down
But the world kept spinning round.
Doesn’t anybody see how scared you are?
There was a time when you were running to me,
But the lightning spared the tall tree.

(Verse)
When your moon lights up the riverside
Making mud and bad blood
You can call me anytime
For all it’s worth, Louisiana’s still not enough.

(Bridge)
In your restless days
I got lost, I got saved.
In your restless nights
I swam blind,
Somehow falling into the light.

(Chorus)
Doesn’t anybody see how scared you are?
There was a time I was running you down
But the world kept spinning round.
Doesn’t anybody see how scared you are?
There was a time when you were running to me,
But the hurricane had mercy.

(Bridge)
In your restless days,
All that wind, all those waves.
In your restless nights,
We closed our eyes,
Killed each other and came to life.

In your restless days
I made my bed, I dug my grave.
In your restless nights
We both swam blind,
Somehow falling into the light.
