Eric Sanderson - South for the Winter lyrics

Whenever I think I might be drinking I prepare myself for a real long night I'm still scared of the dark so I put my hand to the switch to the kitchen light I think about praying, I wonder why you've Lead me here, I think about laying down but I'm too preoccupied with the coming year Whenever I think I might be lonely I surround myself With things I don't need Put my ear to the telephone Calling every woman I leave The sun's gone down on every hope and dream And I've yet to figure out just what's been eating at me I've been seeing things fine But it'd be fine if I could see this clear I packed my bags and it's been hard to go But I'm sick of your love and I am sick of this snow I'm going south for the winter South for the winter this year Love is never what it seems These things are never what we want them to be My dreams are like movie stars that just don't look The same in real life Sometimes all I want is a job, and a god, and a wife Oh lately I've been thinking some stability would probably be nice Another moment and I don't know what to say I'm not in love I'm not inspired by today If I go down, you bet your a** I'm gonna get my way Another night I don't know what to believe Searching the church for the reason that I breathe If I never find home I'll never know how to leave Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone [x4] Floating high above the highway Bragging in my own way Quiet with a smile And show your smile like you mean it Show it like you've seen it Like you've seen me mean it too The sun's gone down on every hope and dream And I've yet to figure out just what's been eating at me I've been seeing things fine But it'd be fine if I could see you clear I packed my bags and it's been hard to go But I'm sick of your love and I am sick of this snow I'm going south for the winter South for the winter this year For the winter South for the winter this year [repeat 4x]
