If you don't want me
I guess I understand
Everyone loves winter
But just for a while
When it gets too cold to play
Then they wanna go inside
Looks like I was the winter in your life
Our love, it was a snowman
We built it with bare hands
My winter kept it firm and straight, kept him alive
But Leigh's the spring and she's arrived
And he's melting by and by
My winter couldn't keep our love alive
Is my snow too white?
Is my air too cold?
Is my ice so slick
That you just slipped off the road?
Or am I just not Sophia?
Or should I blame the winter?
Or should I blame the lеaves
Turning brown and falling
Like I did when you lovеd me?
Should I blame the snowflakes?
Should I blame the sky?
I can have anyone I want
So why do I want you?
Why was I attracted?
Why did I fall for it?
Your eyes- they deceived me
I thought you wanted all of me
Turns out you want spring
And I tried and I tried to stop being so cold
But the heat just escapes and I can't get ahold
Of the warmth that I had before everything changed
I grew numb and then learned how to cope with the pain
Now I stand here confused wondering where our love's gone
And I look and I see that you're singing the same song
You sang to me
To Leigh
And I freeze
Are you happy?
I've finally frozen
I'm winter
I'm winter
You said you don't want me
And I'm trying to understand
How we could build a snowman, then
If that's true
People rush through winter
And yet cherish warm spring light
I hate that I'm the winter in your life
And I hate the spring
And the burns it brings
I'd rather freeze
In winter
