lyrics

Making breath clouds
Match through the window
Death is making rounds
He’s looking for widows

Never had the confidence
For demands of an aisle seat
Never put myself first
But trouble seems to find me

Told you that I’d be different
That I’d be good
If you would

You know I really really tried
Like hell on my Nanaimo shores
‘Cause you’re a good man
And you deserve that

I’m a willow, a willow, a willow

You were impervious
To any real change
No word without solution
No move without rage

Now I’m alone with lilies
They stand out stark white
They glow yet another ghost
In this microwave light

Told you that I’d be different
Told you I’d try, and I tried

Your eyes fluttered wide
Like shells on my Nanaimo shores
Oh I’m a good woman
I don’t deserve that

You left a puddle of red
Flags on my floor
Knitting coats for the
Deadbolts on my door

For you I’ll always bend
Bleeding never broken
I don’t want this to end
Can we still be friends? (x2)

I’m a willow, a willow, a willow
I’m a willow, a willow, a willow

(Lighter in the cupboard
Keys are in the drawer
I’m taking them before
You can ask for more)
