And I think to myself,
'It's not the snow that makes this winter
Cause when I think back,
I'm never cold when I am with her.
She is the sun on every frozen day that I
keep pushing through until she wakes up by my side.
It's not the snow that makes this winter,
It's just when I'm not with her.'
I never see it till it's here
I'm always looking but year after year
I say 'So long' and I watch autumn disappear
But things aren't turning out that way
I'm seeing colors where usually it's grey
I'm holding over this October till it's May
So let the wind blow
I said 'Come on, come over'
(Come on, come over)
I'm at my window watching the cold get colder
(Watching the cold get colder)
I'd never thought that this could be
It took some time but you found your way to me
I'd always hoped that we'd end up here eventually
So this one piece you have to know
It won't be winter if, covered in the snow,
You're holding on so tight that I can't let you go
So how far is far
When just a long drive
Is keeping me here tonight?
And how long is long
If just an hour or two
Is all that's separating me and you?
