She lifts the flowers from the window box 
Summer's found now winter flocks 
She lifts her veil to the morning rain, 
Wipes her eyes to the summer again

House of jewel shimmer on her face 
Cut inside, she would dream to taste 
She knocks the flowers from the window side 
They fall to the ground, they fall to the ground

Hide away from the raging sun 
Hide your love from the fire beyond

Now the woman in an aging form 
She's tongue rolled in, the bushes tall
Cowering down with head in hand 
She cries out loud, she cries out loud 
"Seems so cold, seems so cold tonight! 
Seems so cold, seem so cold tonight!"

Hide away from the raging sun, 
You hide your love from the fire beyond

She can see visions of this force below
Freezes her life here in jail
She heads to the voice of this rainy day
And it cries like a choir in her mind, just stay
Sister, hold, now hold, now hold your head
Dream a cloud, put out the fire which is your bed
She then danced through the kitchen with the force below
Her cries now thundered oh-so-slow...

Just living, like a dreamless child with hatred 
Just living, like a dreamless child with hatred 

She's never been quite as cut by life before, 
Never been cut by way of life before

Hide away from the raging sun, 
You hide your love from the fire beyond

She can see visions of this force below
Freezes her life here in jail
She heads to the voice of this rainy day
And it cries like a choir in her mind, just stay
Sister, hold, now hold, now hold your head
Dream a cloud, put out the fire which is your bed
She then danced through the kitchen with the force below
Her cries now thundered but oh-so-slow

But oh-so-slow...
