Alpenglow

I've been waiting on the proper time
 I was hoping that you'd take my night
 make it pure and make it still
 you will, you were, you will
 all mine
 you were saying: "When you know, you know."
 when we were walking in New Year's first snow.
 Hushed white in Alpenglow
 you lay, we lay, we lay
 all day
 ♪
 I was wondering if you'd be my wife
 be the compass in my rugged life
 come as quick, and leave until
 you will, you will, you will
 all mine
 I was hoping you would walk with me
 down the aisles, your light gathering.
 leave your child with legacy
 we lay, we lay, we lay
 all day
 and when she came, I grabbed her
 and I dipped her in the lake,
 and seldom seen a side of me
 beneath my feet my earth did shake
 and I can't come down, I'm floating in Spring
 and swelling from the sound, and I am driftward found.
