[verse]
Frost on the latch
Smoke from the thatch
Still hangs in the unmoving air
Your cup by the fire
Your coat on the chair
I warm them as if you were there
Snow on the road
Covers your tracks
Last prints that you left in the lane
I trace them in thought
Each promise you spoke
Still ringing like iron in rain
[chorus]
Come home from the cold
My love
Come back from the crown and the steel
I light you a flame in the dark of the hills
Can you see it
Can you feel
Come home from the cold
My heart
From banners and bitter commands
I’m here at the window
I’m here at the door
With your name in my hands
[verse]
They talk in the inn
Of battles and kings
Of colours that fall in the mud
I sew by the lamp
Prick finger to cloth
And whisper your name to the blood
[low vocal register]
The gulls on the cliff
Circle and cry
Like messengers lost in the wind
I send you my song
With every breath out
And hope it can find you
My kin
[bridge]
[whispered vocals] If you are weary
Lay down your shield
If you are wounded
Lie in this field
Where bracken is brown
And winter lies still
I’ll cover you
Love
I always will
