Damien Jurado Tonight I Will Retire
Tonight I Will Retire
Oh tonight I will retire
To the arms of my lover
The sweetest kiss she will give
As I lay down beside her
What will she think
When she awakes
Just to find I have left here
Oh tonight I will retire
To these hands with revolver
And I don't fear death
I will commit
Like an old friend I've known forever
So come on in, take me on
No I won't stay here no longer
And if I should taste fire
Save me not, I deserve to die
And oh tonight I will retire
To loving arms of my savior
And we will walk through his gates
To the skies of Heaven
And no more tears will I cry
Are my sins, are they forgiven
And if I should taste fire
Save me not, I deserve to die
