lyrics

the blueberry crumble of the bakery scone
warm, our welcome in the Pisgah snow
the cardamom aroma of a hot mulled wine:
cold tonight in Half-Moon Hollow

berry-red Blue-Ridge mountain ash
tunnel-dip down a rhododendron path
found a pretty place to write
wind up crying out our eyes
one more night in Half-Moon Hollow

tears are frozen to your face
the cards did caution stay away
stay away from all the awe
but the ice did thaw in Half-Moon Hollow

the weight you bear, I barely comprehend
dragging lines of false advance
of every crooked, coward hand
that ever had the rotten chance;
one more dance in Half-Moon Hollow?

and I don't want to go
no, I don't want to go
back alone

you deal me and I'll deal you
the deck the fates will cut to choose
no matter who's upon your cards
the hangman hangs 'round Half-Moon Hollow

signs and omens pave the way
swine in semis swerve and sway
a 20-car pile-up on the interstate
only one path clear to take
the path up back to Half-Moon Hollow

and I don't want to go
no I don't want to go
back alone
