Lyrics

I’ve come today to take you with me, my love
So hurry now.
Pack your little suitcase and be quick my dear
I’m waiting outside, let us let it flow.

I woke up this morning, clouds in my face,
The wind is cold, rain’s over the place.
My jacket is puffy, I can’t bend my arms,
My scarf smells like mold —winter lost its charm.
The sky is fifty shades of grey,

Sometimes I’m fire, sometimes I’m rain.
Sometimes I’m numb, and sometimes I feel every pain.

Sometimes I’m honest, sometimes I hide.
Sometimes all is dark, and sometimes all white.

Hoped the glass
Would help at all.
Thoughts remain, they never fall.
Even if I drank it in,
Pain remains beneath my skin.

Who could be knocking so late at my door?
Who would be standing right now on my floor?
Is it a good friend not seen for years?
Is it a stranger with unhappy fears?

I want to see the moon but I can’t find its light,
No clue where it is gone or hiding in the night
Sometimes it’s ahead,
Sometimes behind,
Sometimes it’s clear,
Other times so hard to find.

How long, must I stand
Waiting to lend me a hand
I know where I have to go
If only my wind starts to blow
I know the things that I lack
So I’m waiting to push me on track
My wind it knows what to do
To find the way, the way to you

If you would fall down, or stumble, have a breakdown
If you are troubled, and no one would be here around
I’ll come and help you, put your feet back on the ground
I’ll always save you in my dreams…
