Frost Borne (versione 2)

Verse

Pier light flicker on the frozen shore

Your scarf caught in the rusty door

Bitter wind off the open water

Every breath like a battle to gather

I kept your jacket, said I'd save it till you returned

But the frost is patient, doesn't forget

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel the pull where the horizon bends?

Something in the cold that never ends

Chorus

Frost borne, we're rising out of this ground

Frost borne, your shadow's moving, I can hear it sound

Frost borne, every breath like a weight that lifts

I'll follow you into the blizzard's drifts

Verse

Snowdrift swallowing the dock where we stood

The gulls above us flying like they know who you're coming with

Your hands were icy when I took them in mine

Now the only warmth is this one line of thought, that this isn't goodbye

I said I'd hold your place till spring brings light to this shore

But the frost has a way of counting what's been before

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel the pull where the horizon bends?

Something in the cold that never ends

Chorus

Frost borne, we're rising out of this ground

Frost borne, your shadow's moving, I can hear it sound

Frost borne, every breath like a weight that lifts

I'll follow you into the blizzard's drifts

Bridge

Maybe I don't need to keep what's gone

If losing you is still where we belong

Not something dead and rotting on this shore

Something living in me now that it was yours

So let the frost take everything I tried to hold tight

I'll follow your shadow into this winter light

Chorus

Frost borne, we're rising out of this ground

Frost borne, your shadow's moving, I can hear it sound

Frost borne, every breath like a weight that lifts

I'll follow you into the blizzard's drifts
