lyrics

oak seeds and their tenders meet
as autumn 'lights on clever wing
clutching tightly last year’s crown of leaves
to get pushed out by our next year’s spring

winter’s short, we must go north
some greater force can keep us kindled warm indoors
sharing seas, yielding salt
talk 'til dawn in humming darkness baring fault

timid toes fear the cold but ignore the undertow
timid toes feeling bold but afraid of letting go

the cats here aren’t as forward or friendly
as they are in cher st-henri
but they still offer their medical advice
and whisker out the settings and the nights

tawny plaid, kneading paws
unseeded dreams clutched tenderly in purring jaws
snapdragon eggs, junior boots
painted skies, seek starry nights, need berry juice

timid toes fear the cold but ignore the undertow
timid toes feeling bold but afraid of letting go
timid toes, wagging tail, can you feel the embers glow?
timid toes feeling bold as the roots begin to grow
