Couplet
It Cwas Fcold you hid your Ghands inside your sleeve C
As Cwe Fwalked I heard the Glaughter in the leaves C
CSee the Fshadows lying now Gwhere once we stood C
CAnd I Fwould lie down with Gthem if I only could C
Couplet
CMusic came Fto me it came Gacross the Csound
CHow you Flaughed and Gshone and danced a circle Cround
As Cwe Fwalked away I saw Ga shadow on the ground C
CThere were Fstones inside Gmy pockets that were Cfound.
Couplet
When 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
Couplet
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
Couplet
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
Couplet
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
Called your name out to the darkness down below
