Winter Was Lyrics

At the end of a cul-de-sac

Underneath a snow bank

We buried a childhood long gone

Behind frost covered windows

Where nobody could see in

We blurred the lines between what's right and wrong

When winter was a cold and terrible thing

That's when we would huddle up

Under the covers

Crossing our fingers for just a little bit longer

In an empty parking lot

With a car that wouldn't start

Hanging in the air

Was our shallow breathing

Your freezing cold hand under my blouse

And I think that I know

What you'll tell all your friends later

But I don't wanna think about now

'Cause winter is a cold and terrible thing

But it's when we all huddle up

Under the covers

Crossing our fingers for just a little bit longer

In an empty parking lot

With a car that wouldn't start

Oh and if you ever asked me

I'd say you were my teacher

And you'd probably say I was yours too

In a cold cold world

We kept each other warm

We were young and bored and searching for

Something to do

When winter was a cold and terrible thing

That's when we would huddle up

Under the covers

Crossing our fingers for just a little bit longer

In an empty parking lot

With a car that wouldn't start

We were crossing our fingers for just a little bit longer

Just a little bit longer in each others' arms
