[The Lemon Twigs - When Winter Comes Around lyrics]
There's a leaf that returns in the fall
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
Its shape once so clear in our mind
In an instant left behind
When the snow touches the ground
Where did it go? Well someone must know
But no one makes a sound
There's a leaf that returns in the fall
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
There's a voice divides the flame
Sends it back from where it came
To the cradle of its birth
Grief has consumed our eyes
And filled our bed with lies
Like soil fills the earth
Abandoned, denied like a dead man out of mind
No one trails the hearse
There's a voice divides the flame
Sends it back from where it came
To the cradle of its birth
Go back from where you came
Though you're bound to wake up again
There's a sea so deep and wide
That speaks from every side
So all the sailors hear
It's time to return to shore
I can't hold you anymore
But they come back every year
Swallowed alive by a rising tide
As if it wasn't clear
There's a sea so deep and wide
That speaks from every side
So all the sailors hear
Swallowed alive by a rising tide
Their bodies wet and drowned
There's a leaf that returns in the fall
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
Its shape once so clear in our mind
In an instant left behind
When the snow touches the ground
Where did it go? Well someone must know
But no one makes a sound
There's a leaf that returns in the fall
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
There's a voice divides the flame
Sends it back from where it came
To the cradle of its birth
Grief has consumed our eyes
And filled our bed with lies
Like soil fills the earth
Abandoned, denied like a dead man out of mind
No one trails the hearse
There's a voice divides the flame
Sends it back from where it came
To the cradle of its birth
Go back from where you came
Though you're bound to wake up again
There's a sea so deep and wide
That speaks from every side
So all the sailors hear
It's time to return to shore
I can't hold you anymore
But they come back every year
Swallowed alive by a rising tide
As if it wasn't clear
There's a sea so deep and wide
That speaks from every side
So all the sailors hear
Swallowed alive by a rising tide
Their bodies wet and drowned
There's a leaf that returns in the fall
That no one can recall
When winter comes around
