Vanessa Carlton - Winter |
|
Album: Harmonium |
|
Half a week before the winter |
|
The chill bites before it comes |
|
And I'm a child of the pleasure |
|
Daddy brings before he runs |
|
He sits behind a desk of mahogany |
|
He whispers dreams into my ear |
|
And though I've givin him his empire |
|
He delivers me my fear |
|
The unicorns are riding high |
|
Powerful in coats of white |
|
I turn to look and burn my eyes |
|
I carry on, I carry all the weight of empty promise |
|
As I stand swallowed by the light |
|
Flickering above the highway |
|
I hold my head and know the streets are mine tonight |
|
The vampires are growing tired |
|
The coats of white all turn to red |
|
My heart burns with desire |
|
I carry on, I carry on |
|
We turn to look and burn our eyes |
|
I carry on, I carry |
|
I carry on |
|
We carry on |
