Matchbox Whistler |
Bring in the light wood, the sun is all dry |
The matchbox whistler is all cheeks and smiles |
From a walk in the snow with smoke in the sky. |
Hand over hand with ears in the wool |
Quick, close the door 'cause the winter is cruel |
I saved your life once, now don’t you be a fool. |
Remember the ashes |
Remember the black |
Remember the oak walking stick in your back |
Remember the knife and the blue steel stars |
He ran away cold and left you at the bar. |
The oven is hot and your supper if free |
So take off your boots and I’ll put on the tea |
'Cause it’s no easy hike through those city streets. |
Hat on the nail, the old dusty black |
Is saved for your brother if he ever comes back |
But he’s gone, and he’s gone down his lonely track. |
Remember the cold, the snow, and the moon |
The crowds inside with liquor in their tune |
Remember his breath and the hatred it kept |
He ran away cold and left you on the step. |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you. |
He’d wait in the trees as a boy yea high |
With peace and quiet as a cloud in the sky |
And he’d wait for the sparrows until the sun was dry. |
Remember the dark, remember the light |
The cold of the snow, the heat of the flight |
I remember it all and I’m really quiet sure |
He ran away cold and left you at the door. |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you |
Now watch him run from you, run from you, run from you. |
Bring in the light wood, the sun is all dry |
Whistle a tune as you light up the fire |
'Cause the snow’s on the ground |
And the smoke’s in the sky. |
