"The Wolf" lyrics

The wolf sits at my door
Can't escape him anymore
He knows I've lost the war
And he's takin' me for good
I tell those I adore
And the dishes hit the floor
The snow drifts on the porch
I bite my lip and brave the storm

A fire that burns out for the last time
A satellite fallin' from the sky

Pictures on the wall
Another face I can't recall
Patches in my thoughts
Like my jacket down the hall
So wear this when I'm gone
I won't be here to keep you warm
We've said goodbye before
And now it's time, but I want more

A fire that burns out for the last time
A satellite fallin' from the sky
A northern light shines on the horizon
With courage and grace you said goodbye

So let me whisper you a reminder
Before they come to take me away
Whenever there's no hope left to inspire
Keep shinin' the light they all need to see

A fire that burns out for the last time
A satellite fallin' from the sky
A northern light shines on the horizon
With courage and grace you said goodbye
A fire that burns out for the last time
With courage and grace you waved goodbye
Oh, goodbye
