Don't answer much anymore
guess I'll leave a note at your door
but I know what it means

Always on my mind
heart will always remember December
when your fire poured into mine
and brought me in from the cold
when I was empty
and lonely
We both were

You fought for what you wanted
You sunk your teeth into me and didn't let go
and I couldn't fight it and gave in,
You kept knocking until I opened the door
and I was glad that I did
I liked what I saw even through your imperfections

And now your fire is reduced to embers
your laughter almost no more
I know my wings are not enough to carry you
and I know these winds are changing
I've tried to run away before the storm
could come but still it catches up with me


I'm a fool anyway
to have had faith in an unlikely future
while a gulf is between us now
but I can't help that I care so much
my compassion is consistent

But I'll go back to the streets
and I'll work it all out
God hears, and he hears my supplication for you
That will never change

I know your eyes are on a new sunrise
while mine must watch the sun set
I know you're building your distance
It's okay, I'll let go
and watch the fire die.
