lyrics
so the wind took me as her love
and she picked me up and held me close
she whispered across my bones
and hollowed them until they could sing
and she'd push and blow these clouds up
and the mountain wore them tightly like a skirt
as I ascended to her lakes
she allowed me to drink from her stream
(chorus)
so what about that white dress you're wearing
don't leave me despairing
for what I've been denied
don't leave my festering hands alone
lets put some flesh on bone
please, I'm begging
I slept here upon her shore
where her fiddle legged band would play
still drunk, brash and unafraid
I thanked her for the bed she made
I know I've spoken of these things
yes, rich words weighted heavy in love and honey
I hope you can excuse my tongue
for its wickedly honest meanderings
(chorus)
so what about that white dress you're wearing
don't leave me despairing
for what I've been denied
don't leave my festering hands alone
lets put some flesh on bone
please, I'm begging
