Still Winter, Still Waiting

Winter is coming, and we all feel her weight
She's just 'round the corner, ain't one to be late
But you'll keep me warm, and you'll make sure I ate
And I'll keep you in bed, and let the world wait

While I'd like to remind you of things yet to come
Like the hikes in the snow, moonlight and sun on our necks
As we lie by the waters in June
You say that it's late, it's always too soon

I love you, and I'm not there to show it
But I hope you'll still know it
And I'll come home real soon
The Christmas light's glowing alive

There's a look in your eye, and I know it too well
You're the scent of adventure, it's gonna raise hell
You're a mischievous darling with a need to be free
But I'll grow wherever your roots need to be

I know that it's hard when I'm so far away
But I love you the same as I did that first day
Of whitewashed high, the emptiest arms in the world
The emptiest arms in the world

Oh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh
Oo-ooh, oo-ooh

I love you, and I'm not there to show it
But I hope you'll still know it
And I'll come home real soon
The Christmas light's glowing alive

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
