Little child, be not afraid. Though rain pounds harshly against the glass. Like an unwanted stranger. There is no danger. I am here tonight. . Little child, be not afraid.
Little child, be not afraid. The rain pounds harsh against the glass. Like an unwanted stranger. There is no danger. I am here tonight. . Little child.
She's holding a secret that she'll never tell,. She's holding a secret that she'll never tell,. Because the myth is not supposed to retire. We'd rather it lit itself on fire,.
Sun sets in an ocean of brown farmland haze. Power lines draped across roads you could drive on for days. Well it's all too perfect. Time to look back at us now.
In another life. You and I. worked West Virginia coal mines. Side by side. Collecting the black dust like sin. The day the main shaft caved in. I caught your eye.
I don't feel so well.. I thought that you should know. I thought that you should know. That I don't feel so well. I thought that you should know. Before you fall.
Gotta fight, gotta strike. 'Cause there's no turning away. From what you don't want to know. Gotta see, gotta be. If they're all going astray. Don't let them take you in tow.
We're here where the daylight begins. The fog on the streetlight slowly thins. Water on water's the way. The safety of shoreline fading away. . Sail your sea.
It's desert ice outside but this diner has thawed my ears. Hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile when the waitress hears. That I was born in North Carolina.
This green island is like a boat,. floating in the moonlight.. My darling, you too. are floating in the sea of my heart.. Let the sound of my song follow the breeze,.
Hey love. Is that the name you're meant to have. For me to call. Look love. They've given up believing. They've turned aside our stories of the gentle fall.
Oh girl you think you got time. You're gonna get 'round to it way down the line. But one step, two step, you fall behind. So you better have a good plan.
Feather moon. Scarlet sky. Living clouds. My blinded eye. Waters black. Wood in snow. Dead of night. How bright you glow. . Chorus (x4):. Breathe in, breathe out.
Strange how you know inside me. I measure the time and I stand amazed. Strange how I know inside you. My hand is outstretched toward the damp of the haze.
I'm at your back door. With the earth of a hundred nations in my skin. You wouldn't recognize me. For the light in my eyes is strange. It was years ago, god knows.
Summer move forward and stitch me the fabric of fall. Wrap life in the brilliance of death to humble us all. How sweet is the day. I'm craving a darkness.
Once when I was thirty-one. I woke in the dead of night. And heard the vastness of the snowfall outside. Slipped downstairs in my bare feet. Soon forgotten freezing.
Well it's you and it's me. Me with a drink in my hand. The ice is tinkling like a wind chime. And late afternoon settles over the land. And you're talking about things.
Me and my baby on a February holiday. 'Cause we got the news. Yeah we got the news. 500 miles and we're gonna make it all the way. We got nothing to lose.
We are not together here. Though we lie entwined. To make room for the other presence. We both draw back in our minds. I have a prophecy. Threatening to spill into words.
