Where the cold longs for days
The sand wet and grey
The snow turned to ice
When you went away
With hot blood and cold hands
I will paint you again
My beautiful bird
On rock, sea, and stone
A picture I’ll take
C/h
And this image I make
Am Am/g
Send to you right away
You say "Let it burn"
"Let it all burn"
Ah-ha-ha-ha
"Just let it go"
Mmmmm
When will you learn?
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Of the wonder and wait of things vital and great
If I could just slide
Be a shadow tonight
Clinging to you for a while
With my life
Clothes drop like a bombs
In the dirt and I’m gone
Away with the wind
Where the spring cannot sing
Whatever your pleasure
I’ll pull it together
Blanket to warm
And shelter from some but you say "Let it burn"
"Let it all burn"
Ah-ha-ha-ha
"Just let it go"
Mmmmm
When will you learn?
Ah-ha-ha-ha
Of the wonder and wait of things vital and great
