Search The City


A year's gone by 
Since these streets 
Were covered in white
Have you ever thought of me 
Since that cold winter night?

My hands are shaking 
As I reach out for yours
Am I holding onto something 
I've already lost?
How did we get here?
Why did it 
Turn out this way?
After all the years 
We threw away

And you're alone 
This Christmas Eve
I hope it burns 
Every time 
You think of me
I start a fire 
Try to forget you
I hope you're locked up 
In your room
Forgetting about me

We light a candle 
To put in the window

Chorus:
A year's gone by 
Since these streets 
Were covered in white
Have you ever 
Thought of me 
Since that 
Cold winter night?
And I hope it 
Hurt for you 
Half as much 
As it's hurt for me
I've never 
Made you promises 
I didn't mean to keep

And it's the 25th of December
And I remember the times
The times I felt alive 
(Didn't you feel alive?)
We paint on all 
Of our smiles 
(All of our smiles)
And pretend 
That I'll see you tomorrow

But I was 
Never good enough for you

A year's gone by 
Since these streets 
Were covered in white
Have you ever thought of me 
Since that cold winter night?
And I hope it hurt for you 
Half as much 
As it's hurt for me
I've never made you promises 
I didn't mean to keep

But it's cold outside
And these feelings 
Have been dying for you
But I am stuck inside
With the evidence of us 
That you left behind

A year's gone by 
Since these streets 
Were covered in white
Have you ever 
Thought of me 
Since that 
Cold winter night?
And I hope 
It hurt for you 
Half as much 
As it's hurt for me
I've never made you promises 
I didn't mean to keep
