Lyrics

My head was warm My skin was soaked I called your name 'til the fever broke When I awoke The moon still hung The night so black that the darkness hummed I raised myself My legs were weak I prayed my mind be good to me An awful noise Filled the air I heard a scream in the woods somewhere A woman's voice! I quickly ran Into the trees with empty hands A fox it was He shook, afraid I spoke no words, no sound he made His bone exposed His hind was lame I raised a stone to end his pain What caused the wound? How large the teeth? I saw new eyes were watching me The creature lunged I turned and ran To save a life I didn't have Deer in the chase There as I flew Forgot all prayers of joining you I clutched my life And wished it kept My dearest love, I'm not done yet How many years I know I'll bear I found something in the woods somewhere
