Winter

So this is it, summer nights and summer days

And others are drifting away

No lazy day love, with the solstice up above

I think how I am different, but I'm just as I was

No changing course, second star to the north

Straight on till morning, summer forevermore

There's no fresh fallen snow where I'm going

There's no white drifts blowing

There's no fires lit for two

There's no skies of frosty blue

But there's summer that lasts till summer's through

I hold on to hope, I leave crumbs along the way

My hands will find them when I come home Christmas day

But I grin because I know, they'll be gone the second I go

Them summer birds are so hungry to grow

There's a light I see from the sand, it's my home in Winterland

And someday my glove might hold your hand

There's no fresh fallen snow where I'm going

There's no white drifts blowing

There's no fires lit for two

There's no skies of frosty blue

But there's summer that lasts till summer's through

But there's summer, that lasts till summer

That lasts till winter comes blowing through.
