Let Winter Come ---- Tamicus

(verse 1) The autumn leaves have fallen All the trees are bare The sunlight is sliding soft and pale But there’s a sharp coldness in the air It’s that pause between winter and fall Where no birds sing and no crickets call As the earth prepares for Its long, cold sleep My heart is lost and numb Trembling on the edge of autumn Waiting for winter to come (chorus) If winter is going to come Let it come My nights can’t get any colder And my heart is heavy and numb I wish for the silence of snow To cover the ground And soften my heart I was never good at in-betweens The end must come before I can start So if winter is going to come Let it come And let me rest this broken heart (verse 2) Like the last leaf of autumn I watched you fall I heard your phone vibrate Whenever she called And your whispers in the night Like wind through bare trees Were never meant for me I feel hopeless and alone I’ve been waiting for you to leave Like the brief pause Between winter and fall And now the cold will take it all (chorus) If winter is going to come Let it come My nights can’t get any colder And my heart is heavy and numb I wish for the silence of snow To cover the ground And soften my heart I was never good at in-betweens The end must come before I can start So if winter is going to come Let it come And let me rest this broken heart (bridge) If love has its seasons It’s winter in my heart I must live through the Falling of snow Before the spring can start So let the snow cover all I’m ready for winter To blanket my heart (verse 3) I sit alone And stare out the window The world is gray and bleak The trees are all bare And the sunlight is weak I saw the last redbird He came to say goodbye So I’m ready for the winter Before I can give hope another try (chorus) If winter is going to come Let it come My nights can’t get any colder And my heart is deaf and dumb I wish for the silence of snow To cover the ground And soften my heart I was never good at in-betweens The end must come before I can start So if winter is going to come Let it come And let me rest this broken heart
