Some Winters 歌詞

The thaw comes gnawing Up the hillside. Trees cling like vines To the morning light. Me in my window, A glassy gray sky. It creeps inside To where the sleeping lie. Some winters, They linger. They heave their frost Till summer. Some winters, They keep us Locked under ice. Some winters, They haunt us. They fill our lives With shadows. Some winters, They leave us Barely alive. Some winters, They crush us. They tear us Bare and broken. Some winters, We need them, This bitter fight That only the soul survives. The crows are calling Across the long miles. Lend me your flight; Be my lonely guides. We'll rise like letters, Ink across the light, Always a sign Of the stubbornness of life. Some winters, They linger. They heave their frost Till summer. Some winters, They keep us Locked under ice. Some winters, They haunt us. They fill our lives With shadows. Some winters, They leave us Barely alive. Some winters, They crush us. They tear us Bare and broken. Some winters, We need them, This bitter fight That only the soul survives.
