Welcome back
Winter once again
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater

'Cause you'll feel much better when

The snowflakes fall

Gently to the ground
The temperature drops
And your shivers freeze all the rivers around

But I keep you warm

If speed's a pro

Inertia must be a con
'Cause the cold wind blows at precise rates
When I've got my ice skates on


If all the roads
Were paved with ice that wouldn't thaw or crack

I could skate from Maine to Nebraska
Then on to Alaska and back
'Cause you keep me warm


Peer over the edge
Can you see me?

Rivulets flow from your eyes
Paint runs from your mouth
Like a waterfall

And your lungs crystalize

I'll travel the sub-zero tundra

I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes
And that's just the tip of the iceberg
I'll do whatever it takes

To change

Farewell powdery paradise

We'd rather skate on the finished ice
Fingers failed us before they froze
And frostbite bit down on all our toes


Snow drifts build up and enfold us
As we wait out this winter storm

So we snuggle close in the darkness
And keep each other so warm
