Icebound Stream - Laura Veirs

Watch, I can flash across the sky

A lightning bolt from up on high

And I can crash into myself

Now, a flower blooms in reverse

And a song takes back a verse

A photograph fades to white

And I can hold a thunderhead in my heart

And in my bed, I can dream a winter’s gale

And wake up drenched

A stormy pale, a stormy pale

A battered heath on the shore

Will make her keep and wait for more

But underneath her icebound stream

The water pours, the water pours

And I can hold a thunderhead in my heart

And in my bed, I can dream a winter’s gale

And wake up drenched

A stormy pale, a stormy pale
