[Verse 1] She lives where the pine trees lean Where the creek runs clean Fawn in the meadow grass Still as a held breath She sits in the open field wind blowing through her hair Serene in the green Quiet, hard to reach [Pre-Chorus] I watch from the edge chest full of want Your name in my heart A thorn and a song [Chorus] Fawn, Fawn You don't look back Fawn, Fawn I know my place You're far too bright For a heart like mine Fawn, Fawn Still I stay. [Verse 2] Your eyes hold dawn And older woods I wear my longing Like worn-out soles You move like mist Over morning stone I am the fence You are the north [Pre-Chorus] I try to speak The words turn small You stand so high I feel so small [Chorus] Fawn, Fawn You don't look back Fawn, Fawn I know my place You're far too bright For a heart like mine Fawn, Fawn Still I stay [Bridge] If I could be A branch you trust Or a soft fern bed Under your rest But you are the moon In deer-skin light And I am only Learning the night [Final Chorus] Fawn, Fawn You don't look back Fawn, Fawn I know my place You're far too bright For a heart like mine Fawn, Fawn Still I stay
