Wylder - Middle of May Lyrics

Wait for the sound of both you and I
Wait for the change in the bend of the light
Caught in daguerreotypes
Don't put it out of sight
Our daughter born in the middle of May
By the end of that summer
You'd taken my name
Weave a way through clothes
Where the ochre red stains
And the banks they grew low
As the fields burned away
You should know whenever I'm not around
That you'll "wait for me"
Has a softening sound
In the break of the fire
I can hear it still now
I settled down
Brought you to the ground
Washed in the flooded skies
We've a ways to go from the sight of our hands
While the river froze shut
And the winter began
And you know whenever I'm not around
That you'll "wait for me"
Has a softening sound
In the gray of the light
I can hear it still now
Curved by dark and covered in white
Lead me back over the drifts
In and out through the night
You should know you have my heart
And you should know why

Wait for the sound of both you and I
Wait for the change in the bend of the light
Caught in daguerreotypes
Don't put it out of sight
Our daughter born in the middle of May
By the end of that summer
You'd taken my name
Weave a way through clothes
Where the ochre red stains
And the banks they grew low
As the fields burned away
You should know whenever I'm not around
That you'll "wait for me"
Has a softening sound
In the break of the fire
I can hear it still now
I settled down
Brought you to the ground
Washed in the flooded skies
We've a ways to go from the sight of our hands
While the river froze shut
And the winter began
And you know whenever I'm not around
That you'll "wait for me"
Has a softening sound
In the gray of the light
I can hear it still now
Curved by dark and covered in white
Lead me back over the drifts
In and out through the night
You should know you have my heart
And you should know why
