lyrics

I had trouble sleeping
the dawn does pursue
in the still of the morning
all cornflower blue
and the chill April air,
rolling all ‘round the room
let the golden light kiss me
I’m all brand new

and it’s blowing all through
it’s blowing all through
and I kept it to myself

he, for his hunger
knew nothing of me
laid us down, one by one
all beneath the old willow tree
my back in the sand
busted glass in my knee
felt the fear for that man
as he tore into me

now it’s blowing all through
it’s blowing all through
and I kept it to myself

and I held your hand
shut your sunken eyes, the cancer
ate your muscles
all up from the inside
your skinny bones
now frailer than mine
and your tangled legs
cling to sheets, bleached white
and when you left
I kept you with me,
still smell your sweat
when I least expect it
your skinny bones,
hair all cotton white
and you ain’t so tough
as you was that night, now.
