Lyrics
Snow 'n Honey:
We're running barefoot through the snow
No-one lives here anymore
Just the cold between our toes
And the wind beneath the door
(Musical chorus)
No-one lives here anymore
In this shack with splintered floors
It's cold but we will make it warm
Making honey in a storm
You step into my footprints
So that no-one will know
That we are lovers
Several years have now gone by
Since we shared a bed
I kissed your lips and licked your thighs
And ached from toe to head
I can still feel the touch as we slept
Of your hand upon my shoulder
The gentle persistence of a swallow in flight
Or a leaf upon a boulder
You stepped into my footprints
So that no-one would know
That we were lovers
She stepped into his footprint
So that no-one would know
That they were lovers
And when I wake
I still reach out to you
And imagine your imprint in the bed
I think of you and your footprint
And this song inside my head
You stepped into my footprint
So that no-one would know
That we were lovers
She stepped into his footprint
So that no-one would know
That they were lovers
