Dark as the world could be
I’m happy you’re with me
Call me by the snow that falls to the ground
Or when it used to fall on this side of town
I thought I saw it somewhere round here
But I guess I’ve thought a lot of things this year
When wishes and wish lists become different things
We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings
Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst
And all of us end up so hurt
So I’m about to find a new earth
Cold outside, sit in by the fire
The man on our TV’s a liar
You can’t stay sane when you’re locked away
Guess the holiday plans can wait another day
They won’t put up the lights round here
Guess we’ll have to try again next year
When wishes and wish lists become different things
We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings
Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst
And all of us end up so hurt
So I’m about to find a new earth
And maybe for a moment, we could stay
In winter, grass is not so much green
The world is getting sleepy as we lay
With one another as we’ve been
When wishes and wish lists become different things
We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings
Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst
And all of us end up so hurt
So I’m about to find a new earth
I’m about to find a new earth
I’m happy you’re with me
Call me by the snow that falls to the ground
Or when it used to fall on this side of town
