I took a flight headed north

I wasn't waiting any more

And there I was hoping high

If I could only make you mine



I was safe in my fortress alone

Then you came and tore it all down

I wanted to show you the depth of this dream

The one where I see you and fall finally

But you're like the winters that you've always known

Warm on the inside while I sleep in the snow



I took flight headed home

And maybe now we'll never know

But I would lose everything

If it would bring you back to me



I was safe in my fortress alone

Then you came and tore it all down

I wanted to show you the depth of this dream

The one where I see you and fall finally

But you're like the winters that you've always known

Warm on the inside while I sleep in the snow



I've always run right through the moments that count

But somehow with you I slow down

And whatever happened that drove you away

I know now I can't make you stay



I wanted to show you the depth of this dream

The one where I see you and fall finally

But you're like the winters that you've always known

Warm on the inside while I



Wanted to show you all of my dreams

Things that I buried that no one could see

But you're like the winters that you've always known

Warm on the inside while I sleep in the snow



You think you can leave me here

But I know you'll be back next year

You think you can leave me here

But I know you'll be back next year
