Nobody

In the air, first scent of snow. All along the ground the last milkweed silk blows. Nobody's ever going to tell you what they don't want to know. No. Nobody's ever going to tell you for they wish it was not so, better not to know.
It was hardwon, but I found my place. It was hardwon but I found my place. All I could wish upon you is the same. It was hardwon, but I found my place.
And as soon as it's found, I knew it would change. I turned around and everything was strange. Nobody's ever going to tell you, for they wish it weren't the case. Once lost, not a trace.
But you could find yourself down by a lake. About as wide and still as you can take. With a gladness you just can't shake. Down by that cold, clear lake.
