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
