Matt Costa - Cold December lyrics

I've been waiting, pacing along the halls ever since you left here I've been cleaning, scrubbing the plates and weeding out the garden dear I can't fall asleep to your mystery slowly blowing from the shore I have not failed to be what you'd expect of me Swallowing gla** just to stay pure All the birds are heading down south but you're staying up north you say I've got jackets blankets and sheets, its going to be a cold december It could be warm you see, a statue next to me Swimming away from the ice and snow Could I have failed to see the signs in front of me Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple I couldn't see I couldnt see If only time could slow down, maybe I could come up It's such a cold december It's such a cold december Its so cold I cant fall asleep to your mystery slowly blowing from the shore I have not failed to be what you'd expect of me Swallowing gla** just to stay pure Summers come and summer has gone Your christmas cards cant comfort me You've found new friends and tied all the ends It's freezing in the loneliest winter It could be warm you see, a statue next to me Swimming away from the ice and snow Could I have failed to see the signs in front of me Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple I couldnt see I couldnt see If only time could slow down, then maybe I could come up It's such a cold december It's such a cold december It's so cold
