Lyrics

[Verse 1] Crown of leaves, high in the window on a gold morning Young today, old as a railroad tomorrow Days are just drops in the river to be lost always Only you, only you, you know [Verse 2] Years ago, birds of a feather would arrive nightly Gone you know, held to another like clutched ivy On the shore, speak to the ocean and receive silence Only you, only you, you know [Chorus] Here as the caves of my memory fade, I'll hold to the first one I wouldn't turn to another, you say, on the long night we've made Let it go [Bridge] Only you, only you, you know Only you, only you, you know [Chorus] Here as the caves of my memory fade, I'll hold to the first one I wouldn't turn to another, you say, on the long night we've made Let it go [Outro] Speak to me slow, my dear No ghost, of course, in here Pleased to be lonesome, quiet, and clear All is alone in here
