[Verse 1] Are you ready for winter Thought I was Snow stacks up on the stop sign Tires just spin in the slush Garbage bags on the corner Waiting out the storm Whole block holding its breath Till the city starts to move [Chorus] Winter’s running late Everything delayed Nothing’s really broken Just out of place We’re all stuck in between What was and what will be Winter’s running late So are we [Verse 2] Paper boy shoots me a message “See you after noon” Headlines land on the doormat As the sky turns blue too soon Trains crawl under the river Bus doors freeze in the cold We count minutes on our mittens Till the timetable lets go [Chorus]
