This is the fortress that I built Cold and uninviting You stumbled on its stones last night Beneath the trailing ivy
These are the shoes that I had worn When it was on that day last winter when You left me frozen and forlorn I swore I'd never know you better
But oh! You did not know me at all 'Til you had seen me fight With the dead of the night Still, you pulled me closer to your chest You were the one that I liked best But I always thought if someone loved me at all They would give up the things that I detest
I know you'd never change a thing Not for anyone or anything But when you cannot spare an hour won't you Spare a thought for a dying flower
But oh! Who really knows you at all If you cannot talk of your greatest thoughts?
Still , you pulled me closer to your chest and you were the one that I loved best So go to the fields and wait for me there And I will show you the paths I used to tread
High on the hill where the rain came down Punching it, holes in the cold hard ground, well I stood in your shadow Jumping and starting at every sound
