It was cold, you had your hands inside your sleeves |
|
As we walked |
|
I heard the laughter in the leaves |
|
See the shadows lying now where once we stood |
|
And I would lie down right there if only |
|
I couldThe music came to me, it came across the sound |
|
And you laughed and shown and danced a circle around |
|
As we walked away, |
|
I saw a shadow on the ground |
|
There were stones inside my pockets that |
|
I foundWhen |
|
I was younger |
|
I heard angels on the roof |
|
As thousand voices singing, each one was the truth |
|
Well a wise young lad, |
|
I left them in my youth |
|
And I have only just my memory for proof |
|
See a doorway open on a darker road |
|
Out in the garden, thread lies broken on the loom |
|
See a face that's smiling, quick around the wall |
|
And in the distance, mountains waiting for the fall |
|
See these knots around my hands, around my feet |
|
They would take me down my end for me to meet |
|
I grow weary of this struggle and this fight |
|
The morning's so far off from out here in the night |
|
The night is cold and you must leave me, this |
|
I knowAnd empty all the places where we used to go |
|
Before I knew you |
|
I went climbing in the snow |
|
Called your name out to the darkness down below |
