LYRICS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I went up first at five.
The drifts were up above my knee. The light was coming through.
I put my feet down twice for each. That is what you do.
The far side sent a man for it in every other year.
They have not sent for nine of them. I broke the whole thing here.
The word we gave went both ways once. It only goes the one.
I do not know what happened there. I only know it's done.
I broke trail for both — for my own and for the far
I broke trail for both and left it open where they are
The snow comes in by dark again. It comes in every night.
I go back up at five o'clock and put it open right.
I was nineteen when we spoke.
There was a man across the gap who had his father's word,
and we agreed it out ourselves, and that was all I heard.
We said the beasts would cross both ways as long as there was grass.
We said it in the open with our hands, and let it pass.
I do not know his name now. I would not know his face.
I only know I said a thing, and I am in that place.
The word we gave went both ways once. It only goes my way.
They put a fence across their end. I left mine as it lay.
I broke trail for both — for my own and for the far
I broke trail for both and left it open where they are
The snow comes in by dark again. It comes in every night.
I go back up at five o'clock and put it open right.
They are not bad across the gap. They have it hard there too.
The grass comes late on their end and they have enough to do.
Nobody owes me for the way. I have not said they should.
I go up at five o'clock because I said I would.
I broke trail for both — for my own and for the far
I broke trail for both and left it open where they are
The snow comes in by dark again. It comes in every night.
I go back up at five o'clock and put it open right.
I broke trail for both — for my own and for the far
I broke trail for both and left it open where they are
The snow comes in by dark again. It comes in every night.
I go back up at five o'clock and put it open right.
There is nobody up there to see the way it has been made.
There is nobody down here to say the thing was ever paid.
I went up first at five and I came down again at nine.
The way was open both directions. Only one was mine.
The frost fills in behind me by the time the light is gone.
I do not write it anywhere. I only go back on.
