That night the sun sank down

And passed through the trees

The streets all drifted shut

And kept you with me

With the dim of the sun

You’re giving us up

The banks

Rising above, covered the sill

She asks if she should stay

And since every word fell quiet and still

She says she will

The end of us delayed

And fell to the ground

Weathered by the storm

And softened by doubt

With the dim of the sun

You’re keeping me up

My love

Carried away, dressed by the storm

Her lantern turned away

She’s swallowed by night

And feathers of rain, well

My love,

Carried away, dressed by the storm

Her lantern turned away

She’s swallowed by night

And feathers of rain, well

Until the sun breaks

Years flit by in a day

But I still have you today

You dressed in white and I followed you out through the door

Our backs to the wind and my eyes cast down in the storm

Oh, my love

She settles down

And my love,

My love

My love

My love

Oh, my love, she settles dow
