On that Wednesday afternoon
We'd been numb as silent snow
We'd seen nothing but the moon
Mocking all the writing
I'd been forcing on the page
I've been dormant for too long now
Like I've been in hibernation
But I love you, you know
It's just I discovered
There's a life beneath the snow
I knew it could never have worked from the outset
That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept
Spending every waking moment
That I could with you
Now I'm wondering what you're doing
And I'm wondering if I'd like to do it too
I wish I could hate you
That way I could just forget you
Be a single girl and show the world
That I can live without you
Found myself in clutches
Of a panic since the break
I need closure
Want to hold you
Do you think we could just fake
Pretend the thaw never came
And act like nothing had changed
I knew it could never have worked from the outset
That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept
Spending every moment wondering
Can I call you yet
Though I know this must something
That we both will have to learn to accept
Now our love has melted
To a torrid overflow
And the ground's all hard and barren
But I guess it's gonna take some time
To see something grow
Boy you'll be a long time ago
I knew it could never have worked from the outset
That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept
It's not like I want to leave you
Just I've got to go
And I'll always speak with fondness
For the year that we spent playing in the snow
Something cracked inside me On that Wednesday afternoon We'd been numb as silent snow We'd seen nothing but the moon Mocking all the writing I'd been forcing on the page I've been dormant for too long now Like I've been in hibernation But I love you, you know It's just I discovered There's a life beneath the snow I knew it could never have worked from the outset That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept Spending every waking moment That I could with you Now I'm wondering what you're doing And I'm wondering if I'd like to do it too I wish I could hate you That way I could just forget you Be a single girl and show the world That I can live without you Found myself in clutches Of a panic since the break I need closure Want to hold you Do you think we could just fake Pretend the thaw never came And act like nothing had changed I knew it could never have worked from the outset That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept Spending every moment wondering Can I call you yet Though I know this must something That we both will have to learn to accept Now our love has melted To a torrid overflow And the ground's all hard and barren But I guess it's gonna take some time To see something grow Boy you'll be a long time ago I knew it could never have worked from the outset That doesn't make this heartache easier to accept It's not like I want to leave you Just I've got to go And I'll always speak with fondness For the year that we spent playing in the snow Explain Request ×
