Winter

Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens

Wipe my nose, get my new boots on

I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter

I put my hand in my father's glove

I run off where the drifts get deeper

Sleeping Beauty trips me with a frown

I hear a voice: "You must learn to stand up

For yourself, 'cause I can't always be around"

"When you gonna make up your mind?

When you gonna love you as much as I do?

When you gonna make up your mind?

'Cause things are gonna change so fast

All the white horses are still in bed

I tell you that I'll always want you near

You say that things change, my dear"

Boys get discovered as winter melts

Flowers competing for the sun

Years go by and I'm here still waiting

Withering where some snowman was

Mirror, mirror, where's the crystal palace?

But I only can see myself

Skating around the truth who I am

But I know, dad, the ice is getting thin

"When you gonna make up your mind?

When you gonna love you as much as I do?

When you gonna make up your mind?

'Cause things are gonna change so fast

All the white horses are still in bed

I tell you that I'll always want you near

You say that things change, my dear"

Hair is grey and the fires are burning

So many dreams on the shelf

You say I wanted you to be proud of me

I always wanted that myself
