"Halo Light" lyrics

"Halo Light"

The halo light was humble
Our heather died
But tomorrow, I'll buy roses
Nine hands high, little forest
Oh, Jenny, why did you tell the horses?
Willow walls entwine you
Your mother called
We spoke for seven hours
I found the hole you climbed through
But it's too small to follow with the flowers

But all our love remains
So why do we feel sorrow?
Pain came in seasons departed
Our bodies left alone
All our love will stay
To live again tomorrow

Woke at dawn, reminded of secret songs
By the warbler and the robin
I thought I heard you humming
In broken tongues through the curtain
Faces form on our ceiling
A summer storm's little arrows cross my chest
The sparrows mourn your leaving
With silent rises in their breasts

But all our love remains
So why do we feel sorrow?
Pain came in seasons departed
Our bodies left alone
All our love will stay
To live again tomorrow
