Going, gone

Going, gone- Ellery

The farm, the cloud, the field and the plow
hear them softly sing
The snow falls deep and wide; see how it climbs up
by the old porch swing

Chimney smoke, over the oak tree
it was whispering-
It said, "Go, go go," we said, "Oh, oh oh -
the world is listening"

Ah ah, we found our warmest coats
Oh oh, you pulled your tall boots on
Ah ah, out in the winter snow
Oh oh, we're going, going gone

In the great gray clouds, rushing in and out
the sky is breathing deep
And all the trees far below with every breeze shake the snow
down to their frozen feet

Silver flakes halo our faces
we're all rose and shine
Two tracks wandering home, in a thundering snow
back to the fire and wine

Ah ah, we found our warmest coats
Oh oh, you pulled your tall boots on
Ah ah, out in the winter snow
Oh oh, we're going, going gone

Everything is singing in a great white dark and
Everything is shining like a thousand stars

Ah ah, we found our warmest coats
Oh oh, you pulled your tall boots on
Ah ah, out in the winter snow
Oh oh, we're going, going gone
