lyrics

Late in the Winter
m.litton

Late in the winter the sun sets through the south
And as I labor through the cold
I watch the trees touch lavender clouds
And long for the chorus of slumber

The voice of the river pines to the sea
As the night o’er the lowland descends
I’m wanting no more than never to have been
To know not of age nor sorrow

The lattice of the years they form the glades
Where the wolves will hunger and moan
There beneath the grass my bones will be laid
And my children will harvest the suffering

Now the night and the winter and the century are one
In the life of the river and its journey
I carry my weariness back to my home
And wait to be buried by history

Late in the winter the sun sets through the south
And as I labor through the cold
I watch the trees touch lavender clouds
And long for the chorus of slumber
