Winter Is Ours
the snow falls around me
makes things seem so old
I close my eyes & catch my breath
I always feel you when it's cold
looks like tonight I'm a loner
looks like that's pretty easy to see
street lights covered in snow
I wonder what reminds you of me
the lights on the houses
decorations, the tree
they all still have that feel
of you and me
riding the train, catching the bus
winter in manhattan always belonged to us
the skating rink, holding hands
random show-ups, never plans
my hand in your pocket
yours wrapped around mine
I hoped the winter wouldn't end this time
warm in the blankets
deep under the sheets
bodies, undisguised
that's where we'd meet
your eyes in the morning
your voice at night
all the things I'll keep held tight
you promisedf me the world,
seasons and stars
but, no matter what
winter is ours
