A storm is coming down; ground is shaking in this old town Built a fire to warm the sound, of your winter tears that are coming down I heard a mocking bird say darling don’t repeat the things you’ve heard Say nothing in this life lasts forever, not even our bad weather But winter’s coming in, and your warmth is wearing thin There’s a hurt to this town, when the cold comes around So put your heart in, hibernation, and live in isolation Till we wake up in the spring, till we make up and forget winter’s sting Strung out on the kitchen floor, the fire won’t heat his body no more He’s like an itch that I’ve been aching to scratch; he’s like an Indian summer, I know it won’t last. Cause winter’s coming in, and your warmth is wearing thin There’s a hurt to this town, when the cold comes around So put your heart in, hibernation, and live in isolation Till we wake up in the spring, till we make up and forget Till we wake up in the spring, till make up and forget winter’s sting Till we wake up in the spring, till we make up and forget Till we wake up in the spring, till we make up and forget winter’s sting
