Cold December Lyrics - Songs We Sing - Matt Costa

I've been waiting, 

Pacing along the halls ever since you left here... 

I've been cleaning, scrubbing the plates and weeding out the garden dear 

I can't fall asleep to your mystery 

Slowly blowing from the shore 

I have not failed to be what you'd expect of me 

Swallowing glass just to stay pure 

All the birds are heading down south 

But you're staying up north you say 

I've got jackets, blankets, and sheets 

It's going to be a cold December

It could be warm you see, a statue next to me 

Swimming away from ice and snow 

Could I have failed to see? 

The signs in front of me? 

Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple I couldn't see 

I couldn't see 

If only time could slow down, maybe I could come up 

It's such a cold December 

It's such a cold December 

It's so cold 

I can't fall asleep to your mystery slowly blowing from the shore 

I have not failed to be what you'd expect of me 

Swallowing glass just to stay pure 

Summer's come and summer has gone 

Your Christmas cards can't comfort me 

You've found new friends and tied all the ends 

It's freezing in the loneliest winter 

Photos 

It could be warm you see, a statue next to me 

Swimming away from ice and snow 

Could I have failed to see the signs in front of me? 

Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple I couldn't see 

I couldn't see 

If only time could slow down, then maybe I could come up 

It's such a cold December 

It's such a cold December 

It's so cold
