Never more in love than when I'm leaving

Never want you more than when you're gone

Never miss the wind that keeps me breathing

Till it leaves my lungs gasping for its song

You warmed the earth inside me with your bare hands

You took me by the heart and slowed its beat

The dirt within me turned and became money

With your digging and your constant burning heat

You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October

Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet

And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times over

It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet

I never feel more found than when I'm wandering

I never feel more still than when I'm free

But to hear that quiet voice, I'd give up everything

To follow the soft sighing of the sea

You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October

Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet

And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times over

It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet
