[Verse 1]
           
How's one to k

now?
             
I'd meet you w

           
here the spiri

             
t meets the bo


nes
             
In a faith for

           
gotten land
           
In from the sn

ow
             
Your touch bro

              
ught forth an 

          
incandescent g


low
             
Tarnished but 

      
so grand

[Pre-Chorus]
            
And the old wi

             
dow goes to th

         
e stone every 

day
            
But I don't, I

          
 just sit here

 and wait
             
Grieving for t

   
he living

[Chorus]
     
Oh, goddamn
             
My pain fits i

             
n the palm of 

              
your freezing 


hand
            
Taking mine, b

         
ut it's been p

            
romised to ano

ther
      
Oh, I can't
             
Stop you putti

             
ng roots in my

        
 dreamland
            
My house of st

          
one, your ivy 

grows
             
And now I'm co

                 
vered in you

[Verse 2]
        
I wish to know
             
The fatal flaw

           
 that makes yo

          
u long to be
             
Magnificently 

     
cursed
           
He's in the ro

om
             
Your opal eyes

           
 are all I wis

     
h to see
             
He wants what'

        
s only yours

[Chorus]
      
Oh, goddamn
             
My pain fits i

your freezing 


hand
            
Taking mine, b

         
ut it's been p

        
romised to ano

Oh, I can't
             
Stop you putti

[Bridge 1]
           
Clover blooms 


in the fields
             
Spring breaks 

             
loose, the tim

         
e is near
              
What would he 

          
do if he found

    
 us out?
           
Crescent moon,

 
 coast is clea

r
             
Spring breaks 

             
loose, but so

On begged and

Or dare to sit

And drink my h
