Lyrics
Morning freeze is cold and silent
Morning takes a shape and makes a plan
Heavy is the key
That falls into the palm of my hand
The pace of peace between our troubles
Lays a beat that?s simply out of time
Long forgotten needs
Ride along as far as they can
Like January hanging on
I finally think it?s time we let it go
While stranded in this middle-ground
Sparring off alone, think we know.
You point to me in coded libel
Your black and white pictures
Came out wrong
You got me rising down the slope
Falling up a flight of stairs
Oh it?s easy to be light in conversation
But you never sing me your CD songs
With all your love in bins
What are all these cases for
Like January hanging on
I finally think it?s time we let it go
There's no enchantment in this middle ground
Sparring off alone, think we know.
Late at night imprisoned in my weather
Late at night reaching for the heights
But I?d gladly take a sip or two from that cup
When it?s right.
Like January hanging on
I finally think it?s time we let it go
While stranded in this middle-ground
Sparring off alone, think we know.
The answers lie within
Oh the answers lie within
