There's a wolf inside the cave, and another in the clouds I've seen them chew and gnaw on the shadows in your eyes And it's here at home I'll wait for your wanders to be still It's here at home I'll wait for your wanders to be still And I won't drag my feet in whatever dirt you track in No I won't drag my feet in whatever dirt you track in Will you look at me when your face shows the lines of years?
