Back when the angels of heaven would sing
Days when I still made you feel something
And before what might be
Became what's already been

Blizzards and bygones
The frost and no thaw
Airways constricting
And vessels withdraw

And you look around but find yourself all alone
And you hunker down but the cold's already in your bones

There's a flicker of desire
And a memory of youth
A faintly glowing fire for some truth.

I lit a fire,
It started then stopped.
Elements will conspire,
And mercury drop.

Can you stand the weather,
If winter lasts forever'
