no one but the night
copyright 2018, south for winter
all rights reserved

‘twas bitter cold that night in winter
not a star shone;
don’t you remember?

“come along, i’ve got a secret,”
you whispered
i was but a child, didn’t no better

when you said
“let’s go take a walk by the water”
felt a hand as cold as the ice of the river

and no one but the night
saw what slipped beneath the tides
no one but the night did hear
and the secret’s safe at the bottom of the river

well the town, it mourned
the church, it sang hymns
“oh, lost youth, such misfortune”

no one saw the red on your hands
washed so clean in the riverbed
no one but the night
saw what slipped beneath the tides
no one but the night did hear
and the secret’s safe at the bottom of the river

n0body knows
ain’t n0body who knows
but you and i and the moon that shone
n0body knows
ain’t n0body who knows
but you and i and the river below

it’s bitter cold this night in winter
whiskey on your breath, beside the river
just one misstep when your balance is altered
and we meet ‘neath these waters

no one but the night
saw what slipped beneath the tides
no one but the night did hear
we’ll keep this secret safe at the bottom of the river
