The chill in my bones goes down to my fingers
Striking the keys, gently
My thoughts linger back to
Warmer skin and cuffing season
Finding reasons to touch her
Then I get wrenched back to the here and now
Gazing at an empty chair that I pulled out, unoccupied
So I have a conversation, ask about her day
I hear the orchestra, listen
Her energy plays a little sad, soft, loud, and so slow
I know she hears mine, too
The kettle whistle sounds for one last note
I'm standing for an encore that I hope will come another time
I will take each moment as it is
I will take each moment that she gives
I will take each moment as it is
I will take each moment that we live
Apart for days or weeks or years
It doesn't matter, just know I'm here
In snow or fog, in rays of sun
We'll always find each other
Near or far, sweet one
I move to the fireplace to snuff out the flames
Which I would never want to do to her
They keep her going and heat my flow
Writing songs all about her
Then I get drawn out of the here and now
Grazing lightly on her arm, kisses on her mouth
Yet to transpire
I will take each moment as it is
I will take each moment that she gives
I will take each moment as it is
I will take each moment that we live
Apart for days or weeks or years
It doesn't matter, just know I'm here
In snow or fog, in rays of sun
We'll always find each other
Near or far, sweet one
Apart for days or weeks or years
We're all that matters, through joy and fear
The snow and moments we take as they are
As they were
As they'll be
And we're welcome back to the here and now
Facing both our pasts, trying to make a way out
We'll see this time
