Lantern

lyrics

I wake slowly, drag my body onto my feet
But the longer I try to stay here
The more I’m reminded by the dark frigid air
That I am stuck
Down below the earth’s cold dead crust

Little bird, don't fly away
Your yellow feathers they light like the day
I don't want to cause you trouble
I just want you to stay with me through the night
Until the day breaks.
And the morning sun sings praises over us

My face is black as night today
I can't see my fingers for the dark in my way
But dear you are my hope and the reason
I can stay down here for eight hours each day
You are my lantern
My darling wife you are my light

And if the walls should come caving in
Don’t fret cause I’ll see you soon with our Lord
