[ Featuring the Willows ]
Across the frozen meadow, biting chills
Safe inside a cabin, with Addie Jill
Dear she said I love you, you said
I'd write you a song
But that was just last summer
Both so young
Echo of a home life, both hid from your fires
Rolled beneath the dark hay
Heavy breath those nights
Oh she said let's stay here
You said, once winter ends
But spring it never blossomed
The meadow dead
How far would you go to say I love you?
How far would you go to say I need you?
Can't live without you
Late inside December, the cabin grew cold
The once bright colored lilies
Lay down as they wilt
Dear she said, don't leave me
You said, our love's already died
You left her in the evening
And Addie Cried
How far would you go to say I love you?
How far would you go to say I need you?
I'd die without you
So Addie set the fire, on a cold afternoon
She lit but two wet matches, but this fire grew
Dear she said I love you
But only the ghosts heard her call
So Addie in this fire
Watched her world burn
How far would you go to say I love you?
How far would you go to say I hate you?
She's dead without you
So late inside April
The cabin stood still
And deep beneath the ashes
Lay Addie Jill
