Marissa Nadler - Box Of Cedar lyrics

Seven winter's past and gone I once was young and I once was strong Shall I be I'll be I'll be Six fine times I've felt my knees Buckle to your sweet release Shall I be I'll be I'll be Five times tried to conjure you A letter or a note or clue Shall I be I'll be I'll be And I'm going to tell everybody I'm know that I'm glad to see you And I'm going to tell everybody I'm know that I'm glad to see you Even though you're comin' home In a box of cedar For four years you courted I Your raven hair, your brittle bride Shall I be I'll be I'll be Three more times I tried to find - a Lover to match your sweet kind Shall I be I'll be I'll be And I'm going to tell everybody I'm know that I'm glad to see you And I'm going to tell everybody I'm know that I'm glad to see you Even though you're come and gone In a box of cedar [sing-song] What am I to fill these rooms I make it want the drone of doom Shall I be I'll be I'll be Southern winter's past and gone I once was young and I once was strong Shall I be I'll be I'll be
