When you're walking in the winter
With the snow beneath your feet
When you feel the cold and shiver
And the light streams through the trees
Put a heavy coat around you
And I'll just wish it could be me
And stay warm
♪
If I could, I would, I'd be there
You shouldn't have to walk alone
I've been drifting through December
Don't know when I'm coming home
And my bottles almost empty
And I'm running out of ways to stay warm
♪
And I've been dreaming of you almost every night
Then I wake up, you're not there by my side
When I come back I'll give you my love
And I hope that you've not given up
'Cause I've been trying everything
But I can only sing to stay warm
To stay warm
If I see you in the summer
Would you lie in the sun with me?
'Cause I've been living in the darkness
I've been searching for some peace
When the clouds are gone above us
We wouldn't even need to stay warm
♪
Out of focus in the picture
I see the colour of your hair
I hope you've come to a decision
'Cause I could come and meet you there
If I know that I'm forgiven
Maybe I could find a way to stay warm
♪
And I've been dreaming of you almost every night
Then I wake up, you're not there by my side
When I come back I'll give you my love
And I hope that you've not given up
'Cause I've been trying everything
But I can only sing to stay warm
To stay warm
I'm stuck alone
Overgrown, need to know
'Cause I'm out of my depth
Your cord in my hips
I need to know if you feel the same
We can grow only hope
I can show I'm a better man now
And you'll know that somehow
There's still time for us to change
When I come back I'll give you my love
(Yeah, I'm gonna give you my love)
And I hope that you've not given up
(Hope you've not given up)
'Cause I've been trying everything
But I can only sing to stay warm
To stay warm
To stay warm
