Wait for the Winter

The lies are only clear
When all the truth has disappeared
So here we stand
Seven feet tall
And without you here I'll fall
So slide to the left and leave the space between our heads
You'll need it to breath when I'm gone
And there's no turning back once I've left you behind
But you were only perfect in my flawed eyes

So I'll wait for the winter
I'm sure my soul will be warmer
And I know you'll find another
You'll have one more first last summer
Find some rest in the bed
Of the lonely stranger
Burn the single standing pine in the forest of flaming timber

So fall to your pillow
I hope sleep can find your eyes
Peer through the smoke
As the ashes drift down
And you hide the worries deep inside
That you'll never love another
And broken wings don't heal
And you know you can't be whole
Without someone to hold
And you can't seem to find yourself
In the eyes of someone else
But we all know that folded wings don't fly

So I'll wait for the winter
I'm sure my soul will be warmer
And I know you'll find another
You'll have one more first last summer
Find some rest in the bed
Of the lonely stranger
Burn the single standing pine in the forest of flaming timber
