The Handsome Family
The Winding Corn Maze
[Verse 1]
I came to a field of green where the corn stalks grew so tall
The sunlight could not pierce to the winding path below
Round and round I went under those waving stems
I followed the shadowed path marked so faintly with her step

[Chorus]
Down in the winding corn maze
Where the green stalks shiver in the wind
Down in the winding corn maze
Where the green stalks shiver in the wind

[Verse 2]
Such spirals spread for miles through the bending leaves
There in a swarm of bees, I knelt down at her feet
And she took me to her arms in that cloud of honey bees
Whirring in their whirling as they rose on golden wings

[Chorus]
Down in the winding corn maze
Where green stalks shiver in the wind
