Lyrics

In the quiet of the cellar, in the farthest of rooms

In a secluded part of the cellar, in the most distant room

She sits at her loom and she weaves

She engages in the act of weaving at her loom

The mold and the laundry, they mingle a scent

The odors of mold and laundry combine in the air

As she sits at her loom and she weaves

Continuing to weave at her loom

Above and around, the family is stirring

Family members are active in the surroundings

She hears footsteps and voices as she weaves

She perceives the sounds of footsteps and voices while weaving


The cotton, the linen, the wool and the silk

Various materials like cotton, linen, wool, and silk are used

The feel to her fingers as she weaves

She senses the texture with her fingers while weaving

Blue, red, green, and brown, deep lavender and yellow

Colors like blue, red, green, brown, lavender, and yellow are employed

The look to her eyes as she weaves

Her eyes express a certain look while weaving


The littlest is crying, the others are fighting

The youngest child is crying, and others are in conflict

She hopes they can manage as she weaves

She wishes for their ability to manage their situation as she continues to weave

Big pot on the stove needs the burner turned low

A large pot on the stove requires a low burner setting

The children need rides and she weaves

Children need transportation, yet she persists in weaving


She winds up the warp and covers the loom

She finishes the weaving task, covers the loom, and leaves the room

Shuts the door, turns around, and she leaves

Shutting the door behind her

As she climbs up the stairs, she thinks wool, she thinks color

As she ascends the stairs, her thoughts revolve around wool and color

She can't wait to come back to weave

Anticipation to return for further weaving


In the quiet of the cellar, in the farthest of rooms

Reiteration of the setting in the quiet cellar's farthest room

That's where you might find her

This is where one might discover her

As she sits at her loom and she weaves

Continuing the act of weaving at her loom
