I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I¹d heard
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words
But I started listening to the wolves in the timber
Wolves in the timber at night
I heard their songs when I looked in the mirror
In the howls and the moons round my eyes

So long, so high

Then winter came and there was little left between us
Skin and bones of love won¹t make a meal
I felt my eyes drifting over your shoulder
There were wolves at the edge of the field
But I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I¹d heard
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words

So long, so high

Then one day I just woke up
And the wolves were all there
Wolves in the piano
Wolves underneath the stairs
Wolves inside the hinges
Circling round my door
At night inside the bedsprings
Clicking cross the floor
I still don¹t know how they found me
I¹ll never know quite how
I still can¹t believe they heard me
I was howling out that loud

So long, so high

At times in the frozen nights
I go roaming In the bed she used to share with me
I wake in the fields with the cold and the lonesome
The moon¹s the only face that I see
But I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I¹d heard
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words

So long so high
