The Wolves

At my gate, I'll always greet you
At my door, you're welcome in
There can be no transgression
As a means to an end

On the wind, the wolves are howling
Open arms are closed in fear
Helping hands are clenched in anger
Broken hearts beyond repair

Everything's so great, it can't get better
Makes me want to cry
But I'll go out howlin'
At the moon tonight

There she stands so tall and mighty
With her keen and watchful eye
And the heart of a mother
Holding out her guiding light

It's a hard road to travel
This old rock from end to end
The sun, it rises on her brow
And sets upon the great expanse

Everything's so great, it can't get better
Makes me want to cry
But I'll go out howlin'
At the moon tonight

There she stands so tall and mighty
Her gaze facing the east
At her back, our doors are closing
As we grin and bare our teeth

On the wind, the wolves are howling
She cries, "They're drawing near"
Turn around, turn around, my darling
No, the wolves are here

Everything's so great, it can't get better
Makes me want to cry
But I'll go out howling
At the moon tonight

Yeah, I'll go out howling
At the moon tonight
