where were you, the cold morning
the clouds don’t part, the birds don’t sing
silence, is golden
i lost myself in the clearing
where was i, away from you
gathered rust and feverfew
never, thriving
i took your name in the clearing
i’ll be the night
i’ll be somebody’s wife
i’ll be the light
i’ll be somebody’s wife.
where were we, winter wedding
snow gold grey, an offering
car crash, in the darkness
i watched it all in the clearing.
