Things Of Stone And Wood - In Our Home lyrics

Your sister's golden hair now falls Across the bed we called our own She holds her fella tightly Mocks the isolation of the night Every loving laugh I've known Is now a match between my lids The night is long Since you have gone From our home Can you feel me? As I reach to touch you in the night I'd run to you now if I could But it's a dream - my limbs are still The night plays tricks on me Since you have gone From our home So I will lie beneath the whispering trees I'll kiss you in my memory We'll walk atop these hills of sand See how you soothe this shaking drunken hand Beneath the burning sun I felt us melting into one A year ago When you were here In our home So I will raise my voice to the north-bound wind In the morning you will hear me sing A breeze to soothe your fitful rest You'll hold this ghost song to your chest You'll cross the deserts Cross the seas For a second you will lie with me You'll lie with me In our home
