You should be scared
And what’s a wife that’s never there?
And I am one to share
what I have come to bear
Suffer what they will not speak
and they want naught to do with me
Quite a scene, a chance for ready eyes
to carve a name to prize and send
no breath to sting the air
The wall will sing the lion’s share
It’s not hard-- it’s hard to stop
A stack of smoke that spills a mouth
Found you once, I found you out
A stack of smoke that kills a mouth
Suffer what they will not speak
and they want naught to do with me
Borrowed things are nothing had, and now
it’s made him something sad
to shadow when he’s walking slow
no matter now-- they know, they know
In the summer, long ago
we gave the winter quite a blow
fell asleep, and don’t you know,
we fell asleep and woke to snow
And what’s a wife that’s never there?
And I am one to share
what I have come to bear
and they want naught to do with me
to carve a name to prize and send
no breath to sting the air
The wall will sing the lion’s share
A stack of smoke that spills a mouth
Found you once, I found you out
A stack of smoke that kills a mouth
and they want naught to do with me
it’s made him something sad
to shadow when he’s walking slow
no matter now-- they know, they know
we gave the winter quite a blow
fell asleep, and don’t you know,
we fell asleep and woke to snow
