Paroles de Beast Rider

Foot left the road By the temperance river Superior ringing dreams She passed through valleys Upon scalloped hills Now thick as the aspen woods Winter was short Abnormally dry Snowfall had been so slight The Sun had set Yet the journey she made Under the Northern Lights But the cabin wasn’t far For a drunkard So she followed the guide of the stars The thaw had been early But not a stitch of green And the fear grew in her heart She stumbled through the spruce Turned a blind corner Just shy of a cabin up the way There it stood Like a tall dark shadow Bringer of her last day Morning came They scoured the woods But there was neither sight nor sound And to this day There are no remains A wallet is all they found But if you listen Between the waves There echoes her last breath drawn Under the northern lights By the temperance river She rides that beast into the dawn
