Squirrel |
There was once a man he met |
Who walked in fields of silk and burr, so light |
And then the darkness came upon me I woke, I could not see her face |
Her voice across dark waters stole |
Please turn on the light, it’s growing cold |
She was once my lady friend |
I loved her countless times before, so light |
Then the darkness crept upon her |
I woke, I could not hear her voice |
She left no sign or souvenir |
Please turn on the light, it’s cold in here |
Something tells me we burned out all our boats |
Setting sail upon storm-ridden sea |
And putting faith in the gods of ancient times |
I had believed we could be strong and supine |
She was like a breath of light oh She fell like the chesnut leaf |
So the moons rise slowly now |
In swirling mists I dimly see God leave |
Trapped in calm, left her no darkness |
Still as then, I cannot see her face |
Her voice is still accosting me Please turn out the lights, the last to leave |
