I love the things that I have made Lights upon the sky, spinning all the while And all the places that I've been Are easy to forget Just like the way that she used to smile And everything is witnessed Through moving panes of gla** Winter sunlight flashing through the trees Christmas lights and snow to come Falling soft and silent like a wish Or a blanket on the years
Sleepless dreams like drunkards Trying to stagger home All across the empty land And the things that I was sure of Are buried safe away Deep in the frozen ground And all of this is witnessed Through a moving pane of gla** Winter sunlight flashing through the trees Christmas lights and snow to come Falling soft and silent like a wish Or a blanket on the years
