Willow

from Bonfire Diaries by Metal Mother

lyrics

You are an ocean
And I, a diver deep
You are a hungry farmer
And I, a harvest to reap


Suns and moons and stars we swoon
To wake us from our sleep,
Even if the world would die
My love you’ll always keep

You are a sunrise
And I, an eastbound train
You are a midnight poet
And I, the table’s flame

Song of a willow
Blow us to a higher place
Queen of the coyotes
Howl into the empty space

You are a bandit
And I, a chest of jewels
You are a grumpy king
And I, a topnotch fool

You are an Eskimo
And I, a sea of ice
You are a gamble
And I, the lucky dice

Song of a Willow
Blow us to a higher place
Queen of the coyotes
Howl into the empty space

Let us remember
A time when reason took its bow
Feelings of wonder
Help us to remember how
