warm in our winter;

Jan 31, 2007 18:34

you and me; so cold
underneath the powder
close your eyes
because sugar, it's tonight
slipping down, and away

(literally, i'm not kidding you)
(you chuckle now but...)
(we'll break this breath at dawn)

the snow is heavenly
you say, and it makes me warm
we're just so close to being alone
i barely even notice the highway
slipping down, and away

(literally, i'm not kidding you)
(you chuckle now but...)
(we'll break this breath at dawn)

down the street is a warm house
but you tell me not to go
and we twist our eyes shut; side by side
slipping down, and away

(literally, i'm not kidding you)
(you chuckle now but...)
(we'll break this breath at dawn)

the night passes
when i wake you're gone, with glassy eyes
i'm sorry, says my one tear
but i dont want to stay anymore

(literally, i wasn't kidding you)
(you're not chuckling now are you...?)
(i told you)
