about

A suicidal man has a conversation with his dead wife...

lyrics

See my cold face in the snow
I like the way that you know
If this ice it ever melts
I’ll come running to you

I am so numb I can barely breathe
Is there anything left to believe
Just another passing year
That I’ll have to grieve


Please dont join me
Its too early
Live your life
We’ll reunite someday

I’ll be waiting
Demonstrating
That true love will
Always find a way


The house is too quiet now that you’ve left
And the steam you can see on my breath
I painted the wall like I promised I would
I’m sorry it took so long

I was dealing with things kept inside
When I had you right there to confide
Never felt like there was a perfect time
Until no time was left, at all


I’ve been angry for a long time my dear
Blaming everyone but myself for why you left
I sometimes look to the sky and see your face
pieced together in the stars
Twinkly and bright, eyes shineing like crystal
into the infinite unknown

If I had been aware it was our last Christmas together then maybe things would have been different
Maybe I could have changed
Our future was rewritten that day you fell asleep in my arms my love and the smile disappeared from your beautiful face
I’ll never stop loving you and one day we’ll be together again
