The Glacier House Lyrics - The Crane Wives

I saw your breath, you bastard 

I need to know. 

I saw your eyes so sweet grow cold, cold, 

Cold as I could never know. 

You built the glacier house in the fading summer. 

You cursed the earth you settled under, under, 

Understand I had to go. 

Bundle up, darlin', 

You're on your own now. 

Seasons change as they do. 

Maybe I'll see you when your shivering is through. 

You sought to hole yourself in, wait out the weather, 

Yet close the gate on love forever, ever 

Ever wicked night 

Bundle up, darlin'. 

You're on your own now. 

Seasons change as they do. 

Maybe I'll see you, when your shivering is through. 

Bundle up, darlin'. 

You made this bed, 

Now sleep in it soundly if you can. 

I am not one to live with regret.
