Last night we went out to the orchard in the snow There in the constellations, a big dipper far below We walked through the blackness, felt the endless space around And you bent down on your knee and picked an apple from the ground
Out past the forest where the Saint Lawrence lies We heard the cargo ships go pushing through the ice You turned when we heard them Your breath hung in the air
And you said just 'cause we can't see them Doesn't mean that they're not there But I'm not afraid of what I can't see Don't need a reason, don't need to believe [ Sea Wolf Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
We climbed up a ladder that leaned against the hay And out in the distance saw the highway far away The headlights all sparkled blending into the sky above Where the moon was coming up and I knew that's all there was
But I'm not afraid of all that space 'Cause everything I need is written on your face
Over by the barn in the dark we heard the geese They carried our boots past the naked little trees We smelled the cold bark in the air and the sweetness of The fruit on the ground and the wood smoke above
