The Return

from Oblivion by Hugh Christopher Brown

/

lyrics

The door is open wide
And you step in
Shake the snow and ice outside
Leave it to the wind

Feel the warmth and kind relief
As all the fear that was love’s thief rescinds

There’s a quiet light
around you and me
On this quiet night

Winter frozen like a lock
Beneath the ice the old lake knocks
Wind is weaving through the trees
And moonlight on the snow agrees with this quiet light

Oh the falling snow
As gentle as your breath
Moments come and go

You tell me we’ve met before
But not this night and not this shore
And not this conversation’s spark
To hold your profile in this dark

I’ve been holding out
Waiting for some spring
To melt this wanting into giving
And melt this longing into living
