about

"Twine", the first single released off South for Winter's debut album Luxumbra, is a soothing folk-rock track centered on the love metaphor of a beaver and a sparrow; with the beaver as the homemaker, trying to create a future with the sparrow, while knowing stability will never be what the sparrow wants.

lyrics

TWINE
Written by Dani Cichon and Nick Stone
Copyright 2016, South for Winter

Darling you will go, how I wish you would stay
I’ve made a little home of sticks and clay
Don’t let it wash away

Darling I will love you, even when you leave
I can hear the wind running through the trees
Don’t let it catch your wings

For underneath the night skies, underneath the pines
I hold you, my darling, with a bit of twine
But it don’t make you mine

And underneath the darkness where we lie
We pretend that it won’t soon unwind
For I am not your kind

Darling I can’t fight, just bury it in sand
Hold back all my love, build up this dam
You’ll knock it down again

For underneath the night skies, underneath the pines
I hold you, my darling, with a bit of twine
But it’s oh-so-fine

And underneath the darkness where we lie
We pretend you don’t long for the sky
For I am not your kind, kind, kind
Ooo, no, I am not your kind
Ooo, no, I’m the one that builds, you break, you fly,

Ooo, oh, I am not your one and only
Just a place to call home for the time
No, I am not yours

I am not the one that’ll make you sing
I’ll give you the warmth, the shade, the trees
But that’s not what you need

And underneath the night skies, underneath the pines
I’ll cut you loose, and you’ll take flight
For I am not your kind, kind, kind
Ooo, no, I am not your kind
Ooo, no, and the dam comes down, the rivers rise
Ooo, oh, I am not your
Ooo, oh, ooo, I am not your
Ooo, oh, I am not yours
