|
Hearth is cold and dark, heat fails and laughs lose luster. |
|
I can't breathe the air saps life from every falling spark. |
|
Trees are white and stark; fall leaves have lost their color |
|
And I'm holding every wish for shooting stars. |
|
This last night of December, cold ashes to an ember, |
|
Light the fires, live desires, burn this eventide away. |
|
This last night of December, let's make tonight remembered. |
|
Don't close your eyes until the light is January's memory. |
|
Every minute's hanging in December. |
|
All this time we're waiting for December to pass us by, |
|
So we can live, so we can die, to break this cold ice. |
|
This cold is making me numb. Let the clock burn away. |
|
Time stands still tonight. Break these ties, say goodbye. |
|
It's almost midnight this won't last forever. |
|
Let's make tomorrow wait forever. Break these ties, say goodbye. |
|
We'll turn, turn these dead leaves and find new life. |
|
Let's burn, burn these endings and fuel the fire of our lives. |
|
Don't close your eyes you'll be just fine this is just a memory. |
