Seasons As I See Them
Outside the window
I see the snow
There's nothing I can do
It's as cold out there
As it is in my heart
Waiting here for you
Suffering through Christmas
Alone beside the tree
Remembering the day when it
Was only you and me
The world ices over
Before my eyes
The wind is blowing strong
Freezing me
Down to the bone
I thought you were the one
Awaiting for the Spring to come
All the ice to melt away
But even when the chill is gone
You won't be here to stay
Dreaming of all the flowers,
Happiness, and sun
Even when Spring does get here
In my heart there will be none
For every cycle has its end
Mine has come to pass
I should've known, just like the seasons
We could never last
So as the months go by
And the calender's seasons change
I'm stuck in this cold Winter
My season stays the same
Sitting at this window
Knowing what I see
Knowing I will never feel
What everyone else seems to be
All other people
Feel the light of Spring
Experience the heat of Summer
And all the happiness Fall brings
For me it's only Winter
Shorter days, even longer nights
By this window I spend my day
Searching for your light
The light you brought into
This dark heart of mine
When you left you put it out
Gone, without a sign
Here by this window
I search everyday
Waiting for your light to shine
And my Winter to fade away
But the sun never shines
Down on my face
Happiness I do not see
There never is a trace
Patiently I view the land
Empty and quiet everywhere
Your footsteps hidden under the snow
Like you were never there
The wind whispers through the cracks
In a sweet, soft tone
Almost creating a presence here
Where I am so alone
In this place of ice and cold
Where Christmas never appears
Excitement from the days of old
Is now replaced with tears
Someone move along this season
Winter, and all my fears
So I will have a reason again,
To smile when Spring is near
