|
You come back now, looking for a clue |
|
Expecting everybody to fall all over you |
|
If you missed it so, this one-light town |
|
Why'd you go and leave with the snow coming down? |
|
(chorus) |
|
I was chasing after what was mine |
|
No explaining, there was no more time |
|
One more winter would've been my last |
|
I could feel it slipping from my grasp |
|
You come back now, and you don't look bad |
|
You must've made the best of the time you had |
|
Since you cut and run, like they said you would |
|
And we got along without you just as best we could |
|
(chorus) |
|
Well I don't expect you'll ever see |
|
But you're not my maker and you don't judge me |
|
One more winter would've been my last |
|
And I don't go dwelling on my past |
|
I could not sit here listening to the wind against these walls |
|
I still hear it whistling in the whispers of them all |
|
And I come back now, but I won't stay long |
|
There hasn't much changed since I been gone |
|
No I won't stay long, you need not fear |
|
I just came back to see if I had ever been here. |
|
(chorus) |
|
I could not be like one of them |
|
Faces shrunken from the bitter wind |
|
Their righteous rage, their jealous fear |
|
One more winter won't find me here |
