She Shares My Blanket

(album: Barefoot In The Head - 2017)

Effort through the cocas
Among the dreaming trees
The moon stone bare brains
A flower to me

Now ice clings to the banks
Where the crystal waters flow
I can stay all winter
But by spring I've gotta go

She combs her hair
In a high back chair
A room lit by a fire
I stumble in
With an autumn wind
My heart beating wild
With desire
And it burns all night

Oh, close enough to see the fire dance in your eye
Oh, close enough to know I always wanna be inside
Oh, so come here, baby, and lay down by my side

I'm a lazy day
Wood smokes and marmalade
Let's watch the rain
As it all fades into the rain

I stumble in
With a winter's wind
My heart beating wild
With desire
And it burns all night

Oh, close enough to see the fire dance in your eyes
Oh, close enough to know I always wanna be inside
Oh, so come here, baby, and lay down by my side

She's my rainy day lover
I'm her cold December man
And every time we go to town
She holds my hand

Now ice is still the river
And the bear has gone to bed
She shares my blanket
Let's me sleep in her bed
