That Season

I told her, I'd hold her
All through that first cold winter
Defend her, protect her
From our darkest demons

Then spring came, our world changed
We found a different corner
Still reaching, still searching
For what we had that season

I thought I was so strong, a man on the mountain
The sword in my hand, my thoughts in the clouds then
See them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No whiter, no wiser
And all we hear is thunder

I thought I was strong, a father on a mountain
The sword in my hand, my thoughts in the clouds then
See them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

But you know I was strong, fallen from that mountain
The sword in my hand, my thoughts in the clouds then
See them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

For ten years now, I've waited
For that cold cold winter
No wiser, no whiter
Oh how I miss that season
