On a cold, bright night with a starless sky You come to me, my dear Walk through my door, so derelict and pure Bury all these years I'll meet you in a whiskey tree, in a cinnamon dress Your long hair flowing, you'll dance with me, dance with me In a whiskey tree You will tell me how and still you stay So faithful and so true Oh my love, I've been waiting a thousand years for you I'll meet you in a whiskey tree, in a cinnamon dress Your long hair flowing, you'll dance with me, dance with me In a whiskey tree And we'll run through the fields with the devil on our heels And I feel like children, but we know we may die And we'll run through the fields with the devil on our heels In the sky where our jewels is mud and your eye We'll dance so close, your head on my shoulder and all my thoughts run wild And the smell of your hair is the smell of the ocean When I was a child, I'll meet you in a whiskey tree, in a cinnamon dress Your long hair flowing, you'll dance with me, dance with me In a whiskey tree In a whiskey tree, in a cinnamon dress Your long black hair flowing, you'll dance with me, dance with me In a whiskey tree
