Dark as the world could be I’m happy you’re with me Call me by the snow that falls to the ground Or when it used to fall on this side of town I thought I saw it somewhere round here But I guess I’ve thought a lot of things this year When wishes and wish lists become different things We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst And all of us end up so hurt So I’m about to find a new earth Cold outside, sit in by the fire The man on our TV’s a liar You can’t stay sane when you’re locked away Guess the holiday plans can wait another day They won’t put up the lights round here Guess we’ll have to try again next year When wishes and wish lists become different things We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst And all of us end up so hurt So I’m about to find a new earth And maybe for a moment, we could stay In winter, grass is not so much green The world is getting sleepy as we lay With one another as we’ve been When wishes and wish lists become different things We realise we weren’t born with frivolous wings Can’t keep up with changes that change for the worst And all of us end up so hurt So I’m about to find a new earth I’m about to find a new earth
