I wake suddenly because I know
I realised that one day the bright skies will fade into a blanket of white
Coating the ground and making us feel the end of the year was coming
It started with the clocks, turning back
I wish we could turn back
That single hour stolen
Whittled down the days and cutting into our nights
No longer was the evening ours to own
I used to think that I liked that
The darkness swallowing the day
With the leaves drying up and the cold to bring us together
But all it ever did was hide you away from me
In the blink of our eyes
Time passes by
And I\'m left finding where you\'ve gone
Left searching in the dark
Away and apart
Now the silence grows heavy, like the air before snow
Like the quiet before we step on the brown leaves of yesterday
But today they\'re all still
Dead and silent, confined in white
The air grew cold up by your window
I stood there once, hands deep in my coat
Is there another time in the year we could be together
Once again I asked
I saw you
Looking back
Maybe you\'d open up?
I said \"Let me in.\"
The cold convinced you otherwise
\"Maybe one day you\'d look down.\"
By then it\'ll already be spring
Some people say winter ends
That it melts into something softer, greener
But I’m not sure it ever really does
For some of us, it just learns to hide itself in new life
And if you ever wonder where I’ve gone
I’m still walking somewhere under that darkened sky
Thinking about all of the time we spent
Because, in the blink of my eyes
Time passed by
Trapping me under a white blanket
Time passed me by
