I Can't Stand the Winter

I tape the windows up Throw a blanket by the door But the cold wind still blows in I turn the heater up Throw a log on the fire But this drafty house still will not give in I can't stand the winter The cold stillness in the air That cuts right through you And lingers on so long every year It just reminds me How it was warm when she was here I turn the coffee on Tell myself this house is warm But can't convince my feet that's true So I sweater up my heart By remembering the parts Of a burning fire that I once knew I can't stand the winter The cold stillness in the air That cuts right through you And lingers on so long every year It just reminds me How it was warm when she was here I never noticed these cold nights Her love kept me warm inside God I hate the winter The cold stillness in the air That cuts right through you And lingers on so long every year It just reminds me How it was warm when she was here
