Winter Passing

It’s winter again
A white washed and frozen sky
I came to the door
Eyes maladjusted from the light
But your voice rang clear
You said, «For all I thought Id ever need
Its hard to face the holidays without…»
Well Ive left my last message on your machine
Its hard to face the holidays when you’re looking for the words to say
When you’re looking for the words to say
So you found a friend
To spend all your cold nights with him
But if I was there
Then Id wonder why
You still wear my jacket closed
With traces of my scent
And Id say «For all I thought Id ever need
Its hard to face the holidays without.»
Well I’ve left my last message on your machine
Its hard to face the holidays when you’re looking for the words to say
So stay with me here
Nose to nose
Cold enough to see as our breath
Slowly escapes and exchanges
From my lungs to yours
From your mouth to mine
For all I thought I’d ever need
It’s hard to face the holidays without…
Well I’ve left my last message on your machine
It’s hard to face the holidays when you’re looking for the words to say
Stay with me here
Nose to nose
Cold enough to see as our breath
Looking for the words to say
When you’re looking for the words to say…
