It was cold you hid your hands inside your sleeve as we walked I heard the laughter in the leaves See the shadows lying now where once we stood And I would lie down with them if I only could Music came to me it came across the sound How you laughed and shone and danced a circle round As we walked away I saw a shadow on the ground There were stones inside my pockets that were found When I was younger I heard angels on the roof A Thousand voices singing each note was the truth All the wise and light I have left them in my youth And I have only just my memory for proof See a doorway open on a darkened room In the garden thread lies broken on the loom See a face is smiling flicker on a wall 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 And I grow weary of this struggle and this fight Morning so far off from out here in the night The Night is cold and you must leave me this I know And empty all the places where we used to go Before I knew you I went climbing in the snow And called your name out to the darkness down below I miss you
