From the recording Silver Burning Sky
Lyrics
Before the Light of Winter Goes
It’s with a heavy hand,
These words I write
I walk alone, but I fight
With all my might
Your tender heart beats a count
In my mind
The Color in your eyes
Maps the course way up high
(Chorus)
And letting go never tasted good to my soul
Oh down the line I’ll have to pay and justify
If I don’t make it home,
Before the light of winter goes
The Snow packs hard underfoot
And within
The wind scars fast,
The patience of my skin
(Chorus)
So until then, I visit you
In our sleep
The curls of your hair,
In my soul you know I’ll keep
(Chorus) soft
I’m gonna make it home
Before the light of winter goes
I will make it home
Before the light of winter goes
