There's a house that stood against the wind
Till the roof gave in, the roof gave
In the door post there
We carved our names
But all that's changed, all that changed
You left that day, and crossed on through.
I didn't know. I wish I knew.
How you heard them howl,
Their circling.
There were wolves.
Long before the fall
Of everything,
There are wolves in the wings.
When you sang to me, you changed the words
So I learned, so I learned
The good ones win, they always do
I didn't know, I wish I knew
How you heard them howl,
Their circling.
There were wolves.
Long before the fall
Of everything,
There are wolves in the wings.
Lay with me in the meadows of my mind
Just one more time, one more time
Could stop a while, and I could say to you
I heard them, too. I hear them, too.
How I hear them howl,
They're circling.
There are wolves.
Long before the fall
Of everything,
There are wolves in the wings.
