Mistletoe grows at the top of the oak tree
That stands in the front of my yard
A dried wicker fence post leans sadly where the kids played
In the drive where I parked my new car
And I'm standing in front of
A window that once held
Your image when you were not old
And trying to remember when the wind and the rain wasn't cold

I never felt as lonely
As the Monday they took you
Away from our home midday
The cup that your lips touched
Sits next to the hairbrush
And the perfume you were wearing that day
Now every day is Monday
And every minute's midday
And every day is night since you've gone.
And I can't seem to remember when the wind and the rain wasn't cold

And it's always cold 'round here.
The wind's been blowing all year.
The rain's still falling. I can hear;
I can hear you calling
Just like you're still near

This house once was spring time
And it glowed in the sunshine
Of your smile and your warm embrace
I held on for dear life
To the time you were my wife
And the picture of love on your face
My mind can't forget
The way your arms felt
And the sight of your hair curled in gold.
But I can't seem to remember when the wind and the rain wasn't cold.

And it's always cold 'round here.
The wind's been blowing all year.
The rain's still falling. I can hear;
I can hear you calling
Just like you're still near
