Stay

I frightened a hare walking up a trail
As the moon hung in the black air
Above white ridges of snow
How could I lose you now?
How could I lose you now?

Can you go back to a moment that's gone
With memory pressing you down?
There's nothing here to be found
What do I have to give?
What do I have to give?

I spent so much time
Wondering why I go on

I will stay here and pray
I will stay here and pray
For winter to come

With your finger and thumb, you felt my spine
As though I had barely been born
As nascent as the first dawn
Why did you come to me?
Why did you come to me?

I ran down the backbone dividing this land
Like a shiver from the touch of a hand
And came to rest where I fell
What does the daylight tell?
What does the daylight tell?

I spent so much time
Wondering why I go on
I spent so much time
Wondering why

I will stay here and pray
I will stay here and pray
For winter to come

All the colors in the world
All the colors in the world
All the colors in the world
Were lifted from my eyes

I will stay here and pray
I will stay here and pray
For winter to come
