It Won't Be Long

Gazing out the window on a cold winter's night
Everything is looking so white
Like a flower on a cold winter's day
Curls itself up and fades away

In my mind I see the time is growing thin
All you've got for yourself is memories and skin
Like a diamond in a darkened room
The beauty can't be seen through the gloom
And you know it won't be long

You are far away but you are near to my heart
How I wish that I could find the right words to start
Loving you is all that I need
Turn away from me and watch me bleed
You know that it won't be long before the fall

So I say how can I be sure
Is this for real or just some crazy dream?
How can I be sure
Is this for real or just a fantasy comin' at me?
You know that it won't be long

The foolish painter waits for winter to turn to spring
The melancholy death where the birds do not sing
Like a rose that is a wonderful sight
Makes you bleed if you hold it too tight
