Love, I know, it's been a long, long year
While we lived in the flicker of the light
I hung those feathers like hair upon your shoulder
Best not to tether our bodies to the ground
Like a flightless bird on a wide-winged hope
Cradled by the dawn
The afterglow, a mother's love
A deer trail in the snow
ย
I keep the static playing on the radio
You move through the room with a misty halo
Like a flightless bird on a wide-winged hope
Cradled by the dawn
The afterglow, a mother's love
A deer trail in the snow
And we unfold to the edge of it
A crimson sky hangs low
A rush of blood, a hammer blow
A deer trail in the snow
ย
Like a flightless bird on a wide-winged hope
Cradled by the dawn
The afterglow, a mother's love
A deer trail in the snow
And we unfold to the edge of it
A crimson sky hangs low
A rush of blood, a hammer blow
A deer trail in the snow
ย
Love, I know, it's been a long, long year
