This song is a cover of the Sparklehorse song from 1995. In the film, it is presented as the work of rock star Ian McKnight (Alessandro Nivola), who is recording the music at the home of his girlfriend and record producer (Frances McDormand).
I could look in your face
For a thousand years
It’s like a civil war
Of pain and of cheer
But if you was a horse
I could help you with your chains
I could ride you through the fields
By your fiery mane
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
Where the sun will be
Made of honey
I cry diamonds while you burn
‘Cause no one here can save you
She’s returning to the Earth
But one day she’ll be silver
Stars are dying in my chest
‘Til I see you again
She was born with the wings of a hawk
Where she combs her hair with blood
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
Where the sun will be
Made of honey
May your shade be sweet
May your shade be sweet
Where the sun will be
Made of honey
May your shade be sweet
May your shade be sweet
And float upon the lakes
May your shade be sweet
Shade & Honey was written by Sparklehorse.
Alessandro Nivola released Shade & Honey on Tue Mar 11 2003.
