Lyrics for Ether & Wood
Fell asleep on the hardwood floor 3 o'clock in the afternoon I awoke to a pale blue sky And the song of an old friend Took me back to our life, ooh I don't live anymore I don't live anymore All the ashes of our days are ether and wood All the ashes of our days are ether and wood Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes I walked through the house we built Saw the life I left behind Ivory paint, cracked and peeled on the walls The hydrangea and red rose Strangled by vines, ooh I don't live here anymore I don't live here anymore All the ashes of our days are ether and wood All the ashes of our days are ether and wood Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes Next thing I knew, her spirit called She took shelter in my womb And I felt her tiny feet Kick me from the inside And when I looked into her dark eyes She couldn't help but cry, ooh I don't live there anymore I don't live there anymore All the ashes of our days are ether and wood All the ashes of our days are ether and wood Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes Oehohohoh oooohh Oehohohoh oooohh Ashes, ashes
