[00:12.850]It comes to line the road with scarlet flowers
[00:18.887]Creatures begin to stir in a rush
[00:24.877]Through summer days that last a thousand hours
[00:30.797]’Til nighttime drops down in a hush
[00:35.166].
[00:37.854]A choir brightly sing
[00:40.513]Shine like an heirloom ring
[00:43.855].
[01:19.080]Within the tomb that has the light interred
[01:24.874]In time will she release her prisoner?
[01:30.757]No sound at all, the cold is swallowing
[01:36.844]The rise and fall of some black hooded thing
[01:41.086].
[01:43.814]A solitary bird
[01:47.015]Hides beneath its wing
[01:49.786].
[02:29.355]’Til ivy paints the wall with green again
[02:35.369]And all God’s creatures start to crawl
[02:41.233]From when the harvest moon is vanishing
[02:47.454]A lonely crow begins to call
[02:51.293].
[02:54.424]A solitary sun
[02:57.445]Sleeps above it all
