Shallow Footprints In The Snow

Tonight - in the half light of this wood
The snowfalls catch your eyelids
And all the sounds have changed

And your lips - are like blood upon the flag
Of surrender in this night
And I wonder if you know

And I sit, in the cold warmth of your eyes
I listen to the night
And wait for you to move

And the sweat - running down off your soaked skin
Forms its own small pools
And I watch until they go
I wonder if you know

And now, at the first light through the trees
You cover me with leaves
And kiss me one last time

And you go - shallow footprints in the snow
Leave the darkness in this hole
I watch until you go
I wonder if you know
