Time Will Bring You Winter - Richard Hawley

Take me back to you.

This strange world I’ve been seeing

The way you hold me like a creature

Brings me back the thirst for freedom

Hollow freedom

Nights are growing cold,

Loneliness just makes them colder

All there was is growing older

Creeping back through time,

tries to remember

I try to remember.

You may fall into the sea,

And you may think while you are sinking,

You may feel as tall as trees,

But someday time will bring you winter.

Grieving by a grove,

In the churchyard, beneath the sundial,

Amongst the graves with their moss covered names

Sleepy eyes turn in words to the wise

Just be kind.

You may fall into the sea

And you may think while you are sinking

You may feel as tall as trees

But someday time will bring you winter.
