Winter’s Come Around Again

Underneath a December moon
I think about that night last June
When you promised me you’d stay
Until the end of our last living day

Now I walk alone through fallen snow and darkness
But for the gentle glow of the neighbor’s firelight
And sheets of stars in the moonlit sky

Winter’s come around again
Feels like this cold will never end
Maybe by spring my broken heart will mend
Winter’s come around again

October leaves had turned to brown
When you said that you were leaving this town
So I crumpled them in my hand
No season ever goes quite as planned

Now I turned the clock one hour back
And felt the wind blow through the cracks
Of the empty house we shared
I don’t understand why you didn’t care

Winter’s come around again
I’ll close my eyes and just pretend
That summer’s coming and you’re still my best friend
Winter’s come around again

I pull my sweater tight around me
I wrap both of my arms around my knees
I listen to the ice break off the trees

No kiss for me on New Year’s Eve
But maybe I need not believe
In everlasting love
In everything you can dream of

Winter’s come around again
Feels like this cold will never end
I’m waiting for that first summer rain
To wash away the memories that remain
When flower’s bloom it’ll be a brand new day

Winter’s come around again
Winter’s come around again
Winter’s come around again
