and so I’m on a frozen pond
time to say so long
my winter coat is full of holes
I had to let it go
what makes the dawn
so bright and new
what makes me fall for you
but fall I did and like a drunk
into my bed and then I sunk
into a sleep that was so cold
my blankets were full of holes
I hate goodbyes
they make my eyes
turn toward dark skies
what makes the dawn
want to come
after it’s been gone
but I’ll be gone and then you’ll say
that it was the only way
what happens next I must confess
I don’t know what to expect
