as the last summer went off
as the fall began to knock
as the doors all fell shut
with way too much vines to cut
a lost summer
when the new winter comes
when the cold wind blows along
when the fall quietly fades out
and the leaves freeze on the ground
in next winter
it won’t always be like this (no, no, no, no)
we do a great job to forget (oh, oh, oh, oh)
it will all be over soon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
just one more winter to get through (ah, ah, ah, ah)
when the new winter comes
when the short days move along
when the old hopes all fade out
and I lie here on the ground
in next winter
