Stillhouse Hollow Lyrics

I waited at her gate

A storm flash lit the night

A certain rain for now would wait

For her room light to turn out

A barn cat overturned a lid

Of milk for him that been left out

Lanterns rattled with the wind

Throwing shadows against her house

On the road round stillhouse lake

To the bedroom where she lies awake and waiting

Throwing rocks against her windowpane

No she never did come down

I swear I swallowed then the faint hint

Of her satin things, of summer in the south

The rain came and ended this

Her room light flickered out

So I walked back down where I got off

Of FM 1206

Stillhouse glowed from coals of cedar limb

We left burning in the mist
