Lyrics:
Cold as a river that's heavy after snowfall
A mystery of silver blue
That's the way I see you
Dark as the forest that shimmers after nightfall
A secrecy of hollowness
More burdensome than magical
Chorus:
But all the same
I'll stay with you whate'er you do
And all the same
I'll go with you to Manitoba
Indian river, a temperate November
For winter's more than half of you
That's the way I see you
Strange and forbidding the things that you remember
You know I wish some other girl
Had welcomed you inside of her
(Chorus)
And all the same
I'll stay with you whate'er you do
And all the same
I'll go with you and care for you
(Chorus)
