Lyrics

Verse 1
I remember her warmth and beauty
Fading like the colors of Fall into Winter.
Her endless days of dark and cold
Gave me nothing to feed my starving soul?

Chorus
I can?t go back to more of that.
It was an honor and privilege just to be there,
I can?t go back to that.

Verse 2
Never stopped caring, I knew her good side
A heart of gold shining (beating) behind her cloudy sky.
I loved the light, she dwelled in gray.
I wanted forever, she barely gave one day.

Bridge
I was her servant and I was her child
And her crooked road ran straight for many miles.

Verse 3
Her rain left me damp and cold
Her wind chilled me to the bone.
Stopping in at the local bar
Used to pull me through ?til she pushed me too far.

Verse 4
Destined to live apart,
She in her ice and me in my heart.
Miss her bad, but won?t pretend
A love so broken will ever really mend.

Repeat Chorus
