Longings (The Meadow Song)

by Autumn Dawn Leader

/

about

There is a philosophy which says that the deepest satisfaction is actually in the wanting of something rather than the having. I have a feeling that this type of thinking is just meant to comfort (or, at least, pacify) those of us who can't get what we want. However, I must admit, there is a sort of magic in the longing itself. And, during lockdown and this continued pandemic, there has been a LOT of unfulfilled longing...more so than usual. >.<

lyrics

Meet me at the meadow
You can build me a fire
You know the kind of warmth I crave

And, we can dance around our longings
All we have now are our words
And I hide them in my heart

Riddles of desire -
Or is it riddled by desire?!
It's obvious in the light of the flames

And, we can dance around our longings
All we have now are our words
And we sing them to each other
As we dance around our longings
All we have now are these words
This fire won't be quenched tonight

And, we dance around our longings
All we have now are our words
And we sing them to each other
As we dance around our longings
All we have now are these words
This fire won't be quenched tonight
This fire won't be quenched tonight
This fire won't be quenched..
Anytime soon
