Late December

The day we met still lives in my memory My eyes were closed, you opened them up for me All that long summer, our love it grew on the vine But seasons change and with them your attitude All your moods now seem so much more subdued You say you love me, but it can't work out this time The girl I knew I no longer recognize It's as if you are wearing a strange disguise Help me see through it, show me the love in your eyes I try so very hard to anticipate Your every need But you don't appreciate What I go through To keep our romance alive In your mind it's always December All I find is love's dying ember Don't let it burn out Where there's a spark can be flame Tend the spark and make it glow Feed the fire and build it slow Love knows no season Keep it alive, let it grow The things you say tear out the heart of me Don't turn away ... you're still such a part of me Can't you remember We've always been lovers and friends I try so very hard to anticipate Your every need But you don't appreciate What I go through To keep our romance alive In your mind it's always December All I find is love's dying ember Don't let it burn out Where there's a spark can be flame Tend the spark and make it glow Feed the fire and build it slow Love knows no season Keep it alive let it grow
