"The Longest Winter" lyrics

"The Longest Winter"

It's been a long, long winter
I don't remember them this cold
Not even the prank calls
Are helping pass the time anymore

So take away my guitar
Take away the chords
Take away the shady lane song, too
You better take my heart

And don't bother calling back
No really, don't bother
Unless you know spring has come to me for good

Takes almost an hour
To warm myself most times
There aren't enough blankets
Without you here in them
And I wonder why I bother anyway

So give me all the warmth
Give me all your smiles
Give me all the sunshine, baby, and
Give me back my heart

And I hope you think to call me
When you hear
That it's raining
But I know
Spring won't come to me see soon

But maybe I will be ready to see you
