It is Wednesday night
There is a sheet of snow
Covering the shivering streets
And I'm sitting in bed
And I'm wondering how
The strongest of promises
Can be made broken
By a simple misunderstanding

It is Wednesday night
This time
Last Year
I was scribbling your name
On a piece of wrinkled paper
Titled "Christmas List"

And you were
Howling at the sky about
How hard it is to cope
With the fact that
You were strong
But the weight of the world
Was stronger
