Imagine a world where small, seemingly insignificant moments are woven into the fabric of life's greater mysteries. In this song, Iron & Wine paints a vivid picture of innocence and discovery through the eyes of a boy and a girl. The boy finds a coin, symbolizing hope and fate, while the girl discovers a bird, representing freedom and divine connection. Both characters experience profound realizations about life and existence as they encounter these symbols. The recurring theme of God leaving the ground suggests a sense of abandonment or distance from the divine. It's a hauntingly beautiful reminder that even in our most mundane moments, there's an underlying depth to our experiences. #LifeMysteries #DivineDistance
Boy With a Coin
Lyrics
A boy with a coin he found in the weeds
With bullets and pages of trade magazines
Close to a car that flipped on the turn
When god left the ground to circle the world
A girl with a bird she found in the snow
Then flew up her gown and that's how she knows
That God made her eyes for crying at birth
Then left the ground to circle the Earth
A boy with a coin he crammed in his jeans
Then making a wish, he tossed in the sea
Walked to a town that all of us burn
When god left the ground to circle the world
