My Lair - Bear's Den

You need not have come

To my lair

You do not know who you’ll find in there

I sink my claws into the snow

For all that you’ve forgotten me, passive show

For there’s a corner

Out amongst the white

Where someone is waiting

For you to arrive

And though you’re searching

For what you might never find

He’ll be there waiting

For all of your life

I could not ignore the call of the night

To return to the haunt you would have me deny

No, I could never tell you where I had been

For you could never answer them

But there’s a corner

Out amongst the white

Where someone is waiting

For you to arrive

And the one you’re holding

Is not the one you left behind

He’ll be there waiting

For all of your life

And though our coats are all at one with the snow

I could not turn away from all I wish I did not know

All I wish you had not shown
