about

For Elvin Hood

lyrics

Like a winter wind in October

It comes out of nowhere

Like narrow halls, closing in on all sides

It leaves us breathless and broken too

Until now it’s all been golden

Now that it’s brass, oh what to do?

No one it seems is ever ready

For black wreaths and our adieu

Very soon, we’ll all be leaving

Behind someone to grieve

Over time that feels stolen

And the soul that we wore on our sleeve

Sun is setting, just over the hill

The birds must now take flight

Their language lost within translation

Between the spirit and the gulf

It's in the ink we spilled on pages

Though forlorn in but a short time

Listing on the wind like dandelions

Our memory scatters in frame, in mind

Very soon, we’ll all be leaving

Behind someone to grieve

Over time that feels stolen

And the soul that we wore on our sleeve
