This song is amazingly sweet, somehow, even though speaking of death and war. I just heard this song on the new album and it is another song with amazing poetic meaning. I'm not so sure that the soldier is dead however. I'm sure many disagree, as I can see with the comments above, but that is the beauty of Iron and Wine songs, there are hidden meanings and everyone can derive their own meanings. Another beautiful song from Sam.

Just to let you know, it's not written by Sam, but a fantastic cover. U may know that, but it didn't seem that way from your comment. Awesome cover.
