Marissa Nadler - Box Of Cedar Lyrics

Seven winters past and gone
I once was young and I once was strong
Shannadee- ah dee ah dee

Six fine times I felt my knees
Buckle to your sweet release
Shannadee- ah dee ah dee

Five times tried to conjure you
Another letter or a note or clue
Shannadee ah dee ah dee

And I'm going to tell everybody
I'm know that I'm glad to see you
And I'm going to tell everybody
I'm know that I'm glad to see you
Even though you're coming home
In a box of cedar

For four years you courted I
Your raven hair, your brittle bride
Shannadee ah dee ah dee

Three more times I tried to find it
A lover to match your sweet kind
Shannadee ah dee a dee

And I'm going to tell everybody
I'm know that I'm glad to see you
And I'm going to tell everybody
I'm know that I'm glad to see you
Even though you're coming home
In a box of cedar

[sing-song]

One am I to fill these rooms
And wake each morn to the drone of doom
Shannadee ah dee a dee

Seven winters past and gone
I once was young and I once was strong
Shannadee ah dee a dee
