Lyrics
Winter Winds
Winter winds blow beech leaves like crazy fingers on a piano
My eyes burn, my heart surrenders
Wake up remembering warm skin, feeling lost, looking for something
A reason, just one reason to come in
You remember, you remember
Remember, the bird’s calling in the early AM
Dry lips slowing breathing as I move a finger to connect with skin
Started burning, slowly, windows shaking in the wind
There’s another day, there’s another day
(Solo)
Thin fingers slightly crossed each other just beach leaves against the window
My eyes burn, my heart surrenders
Spring came and summer went, tomatoes mostly green and sky like cement
Maybe lost focus, maybe got brave, finally said I need more
Just don’t know how to help us begin again, begin again
Begin again
