I Followed Fires Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Give me to the road
Upon the heart that I had sold
Warm my heavy hands
My heavy hands for you to hold
[Verse 2]
There's a devil at your door
And he grows, he grows
So I been told he had a heart of gold
And it grows, grows like a storm
[Chorus]
Now the low lakes have frozen
Away from home I'll go
When the first snow has fallen
Away I'll go
[Verse 3]
Give me to the ground
I followed fires toward the sound
Cold upon the mountain
To which I'm bound, to which I'm bound
[Verse 4]
Well I met you by the mill
Where your heart went still
Sparrow swung down and he took shape and form
And it rose, rose like a storm
[Chorus]
Now the low lakes have frozen
Away from home I'll go
When the first snow has fallen
Away I'll go
[Chorus]
Now the low lakes have frozen
Away from home I'll go
When the first snow has fallen
Away I'll go
