Settling in for a lonely one
|
Quiet as snow now the lights are gone
|
The houses fall and they rise anew
|
But the faces change
|
They all move on like you
|
The air feels colder tonight
|
They all pass over in the fading light
|
|
South for the winter once again
|
So as we end so life begins
|
|
Covering up all the careless things
|
The curtains drawn on the suffering
|
The postcards come from a brighter day
|
I'll see you soon, but soon seems far away
|
The wind calls the moth from the nest
|
The wings grow tired but there's no rest
|
|
South for the winter once again
|
So as we end so life begins
|
South for the winter back to blue
|
Over and over but not over you
|
|
Speak slowly so I can see
|
The sun from your memory
|
Just take your sweet time let it last beyond the dream
|
I know you can't stay for long
|
Soon the courage to be strong
|
You'll fly away and I'll lay in the place of sleep
|
This place of sleep
|
This place of sleep
|
|
South for the winter once again
|
So as we end so I begin
|
South for the winter flying free
|
Gone to the dawn leave the dark for me
|
|
I'm just settling in for a lonely one
|
Quiet as snow all the lights are gone
|
You're gone
|
You're gone
|
