1
I still remember that time when we were dancing
2
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard
3
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
4
I was singing without knowing the words
5
But I started listening to the wolves in the timber
6
Wolves in the timber at night
7
I heard their songs when I looked in the mirror
8
In the howls and the moons round my eyes
9
[Chorus]
10
So long, so high
11
So long, so high
12
So long, so high
13
So long
14
Then winter came and there was little left between us
15
Skin and bones of love won't make a meal
16
I felt my eyes lifting over your shoulder
17
There were wolves at the edge of the field
18
But I still remember that time when we were dancing
19
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard
20
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
21
I was singing without knowing the words
22
[Chorus]
23
Then one day I just woke up
24
And the wolves were all there
25
Wolves in the piano
26
Wolves underneath the stairs
27
Wolves inside the hinges
28
Circling round my door
29
At night inside the bedsprings
30
Clicking cross the floor
31
I don't know how they found me
32
I'll never know quite how
33
I still can't believe they heard me
34
That I was howling out that loud
35
[Chorus]
36
At times in the frozen nights I go roaming
37
In the bed she used to share with me
38
I wake in the fields with the cold and the lonesome
39
The moon's the only face that I see
40
But I still remember that time when we were dancing
41
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard
42
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
43
I was singing without knowing the words
44
[Chorus]
