Snow

What if we lived in the same town?
What would have happened then?
I can see you in your winter gloves
Wishing that I never left
Throat closing, waving from across the street
Heartbroken, you still got a piece of me
I tiptoed alone
To your wooden room
I felt you changing
In an afternoon
We left it open
Kept the pages clean
I didn’t mean to let you go
I still see you in the snow
I held my breath on the river
We were supposed to be good
You were afraid of the moonlight
I walked you home through the woods
My suitcase was heavier than I thought it’d be
I looked back and caught you crying
I tiptoed alone
To your wooden room
I felt you changing
In an afternoon
We left it open
Kept the pages clean
I didn’t mean to let you go
I still see you in the snow
From this side
I can hold it better now
You were wrong
You were right
I tiptoed alone
To your wooden room
I felt you changing
In an afternoon
We left it open
Kept the pages clean
I didn’t mean to let you go
I still see you in the snow
