Why am I walking barefoot
F# Ab F#
Upon this road with no one around
E Dm7 B9
I close my eyes to this decision

The night's like coffee to my tongue
Like waking up without a sound
I map the words out
Maybe you will say them

Always I am mistaken
I look for love, I find a stone
Of all the seasons, winter befriends me

I come to you in friendship
And hold my breath against the snow
What are you thinking as I gaze into you
Pre-Chorus 2:

Forgive me as I realize my thoughts betrayed

Cry and smile the same
