Come wallow with me,
Where the wind reaps and sows-
Out of winter’s white darkness,
To the forest we go.
The candles melt into the pavement,
The trees come alive at your touch-
It’s been so long since you’ve been back,
How dearly we missed you so much!

Come wallow with me,
Through the high ways and low-
Into misty white rivers,
Through the October snow.
The laughter will get you from under,
The blackbird will kneel at your feet-
It’s been so long since we‘ve seen you,
In the woods where we finally meet.

Come wallow with me,
through the depths of my mind-
in the swampiest nights,
meeting beasts of all kinds.
The sweat will freeze on your forehead,
The lions will eat you alive-
I’ve known it since the day I was born,
You’ll know it since the day you died
