SINGING TO THE BONES

First I find you, lying whitened 
Bleached by sun
Or buried by the snow of winter 
Like a child I had lost you
I had felt my flesh was frozen 
I had felt my mind was hollow

Alone
Singing to the bones


How the darkness soothes my sorrow 
Takes me through the line of reason 
Takes me to the place of shadow

Alone
Singing to the bones

Oh, this night is holier than I can fathom 
And I see you, turning back to face you

Alone
Singing to the bones
