[Verse] When winter comes don't know why Lazy days turn to night Mama’s shoutin' morning rush Clock hands moving time’s a crush [Verse 2] See the winter don’t know why School days come back to life Cold that bites and hurry sounds In my heart those mem'ries found [Chorus] When winter comes don’t know why Old anxiety makes me sigh Ten cents please for sheets and snacks Echoes of no comin' back [Verse 3] In winters past don’t know why Booming voice would make me cry Beg for pennies just to spend Grants of kindness barely bend [Verse 4] Mornings cold with folder torn Apron tight for school at dawn Couldn’t find the ten cents fee Paper dry chestnuts brief reprieve [Chorus] When winter comes don’t know why Old anxiety makes me sigh Ten cents please for sheets and snacks Echoes of no comin' back
