Snow

I am weak and I am selfish You are but a guest in my heart Welcome for now But soon must depart You’re a Catherine Wheel Spinning its last You’d speed past the hedgerows I’d ask if it’s ok if I smoke You’d say it doesn’t bother you And you’d smile as I spoke You’re a little child Losing his hope And in the trappings of the silent snow That fell over night And won’t let me go Oh I know that the shame is mine And the blame is my own to bear Well I don’t think and I don’t feel A cold chill doesn’t grip me yet My chest is half empty My mind a blank cassette Tomorrow seems a dark distant threat And if I knew what had pushed you So far from my heart or my mind Well would it give you comfort Or strength of some kind And would it give you peace As I leave you behind And in the trappings of the silent snow That fell over night And won’t let me go Oh I know that the shame is mine And the blame is my own to bear Oh I will never belong Belong to anyone Oh I will never belong Belong to anyone Belong to anyone Belong to anyone And in the trappings of the silent snow That fell over night And won’t let me go Oh I know that the shame is mine And the blame is my own to bear
