Black Widow

[Verse 1]
I listen to the willow weep
Somnambulance with rooted feet
As shadows chase an empty Moon
And Winter wanders in too soon

[Refrain]
Her skirts are rustling dark and bleak
They settle onthe cold and weak
And whisper sweetly in their ears
"Could you settle here? Would you linger near?"

[Chorus]
Black widows dress themselves for sleep
In the shafts they weave, they weave, they weave

[Verse 2]
Winnow doubt like chaff from wheat
That silence so beneath our feet
And separate a year too soon
You left me with a harvest moon

[Refrain]
Her skirts are rustling dark and deep
They settle on the cold and weak
And whisper sweetly in their ears
"Could you settle here? Would you linger near?"

[Outro]
Black widow
Black widow
Black widow
Black widow
Black widow
