Had a circular saw blade
Where I should have had a heart
I was trusted, I adored her
And I tore it all apart

Twin moons on a millpond
From a tumbledown barn
I can still taste the heat of the sun on her skin in my arms

I could fold to the cold of these January streets
But your smile in the half light is pure pillow print cheek
I will be far away for awhile but my heart’s staying put
Warming and guarding and guiding the one that I love
Warming and guarding and guiding the ones that I love

The silence and the waiting and the rush of all aboard
Fifty should to a carriage and I’m trying hard to be ignored
Then my telephone shakes into life and I see your name
And the wheat fields explode into gold either side of the train
And the wheat fields explode into gold either side of the train
And the wheat fields explode into gold

Interpretation

We were in love, but I did so much to ruin it. I am going away for awhile, but my heart will stay with her.
