In shadow, in dark In cold wind, open up your heart 'Cause time brushes your face And one loved them, every new shape One loved them for what could not get left behind Or washed away Some were seasons, some just days I'm bringing nothing with me I mean to save This faint sweetness, this wick of light This white apple, full of bites A white apple, full of what has slipped away from me Full of flesh, sweet as memory Full of hope, grown from a fallen tree Full of a life, I can't just let myself believe So if I haunt you, if I do If my shadow leans up on you too No good intentions or ways I talk I'll just leave a light lit for you to walk I'll leave a light lit for you to walk
