As she wanders freely through the forest
Am    Em            G      C
Can I close and open once again?

         Hound dogs crowing at the stars above

Pigeons fall like snowflakes at the border
Am        Em                  G       C
She kneels down and holds the frozen dove
D               Em             C
Moon drips like water from her shoulder
