lyrics

Rocks and Snow (© David Ross Macdonald 2010)

these are things that we know
how the string comes alive to the draw of the bow
and the hairs on our neck now remember the tone
and our hearts reawaken the song

these are things that we know,
they're as plain as rice in a bowl
without which we'd starve in the dark and the cold
as we cling to the rocks and the snow
as we cling to the rocks and the snow

these are things that we know,
what falls in the west rises once more
still in our sleep but the stars always roll
as we cling to the rocks and the snow
as we cling to the rocks and the snow

these are things that we know,
a feather in our throat that wings to our soul
a voice that reminds us that we must let go
from our grip of the rocks and the snow
from our grip of the rocks and the snow
