Here in the valley, the hours are cut
Down from the hills up above
Double the dark, now the new season's come
There goes the quick winter sun
Woke up too late, now the day's almost done
There goes the quick winter sun
All of the others around us have gone
Look, we're the last humans
Out on the trail too far
We feel our way back to the car
Swallows return to their houses of mud
There goes the quick winter sun
