"Winter Bird" lyrics

"Winter Bird"

Walking in my sleep
Like the naked trees
Will they wake up again?
Do they sleep? Do they dream?

Feel it as the wind strokes my skin
I am moved by the chill
Hear the winter bird sing

My tears are always frozen
I can see the air I breathe
Got my fingers painting pictures
On the glass in front of me
Lay me by the frozen river
Where the boats have passed me by
All I need is to remember
How it was to feel alive

Silent days
Violent chase
We are dancing again
In a dream by the lake
Ah...

My tears are always frozen
I can see the air I breathe
Got my fingers painting pictures
On the glass in front of me
Lay me by the frozen river
Where the boats have passed me by
All I need is to remember
How it was to feel alive

Rest against my pillow like the ageing winter sun
Only wake each morning to remember that you're gone
So I drift away again
To winter I belong
Ah...

My tears are always frozen
I can see the air I breathe
Got my fingers painting pictures
On the glass in front of me
Lay me by the frozen river
Where the boats have passed me by
All I need is to remember
How it was to feel alive

My tears are always frozen...
Ah...
My tears are always frozen...
Ah...
My tears are always frozen...
Ah...

All I need is to remember
How it was to feel alive
I need to remember
How it was to feel alive
