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
|
