The Long Winter

From the Album: The Sounding (1986)
So many things I never said
I had so many things to say
It was always so easy just to pretend
There'd always be other days
I wanted to show you all the little things
That are so easy to pass by
I wanted to tell you all of my secrets
I never had the time
And what I knew, I knew for you
And what I'd do, I'd do for you
I would not mind
I wanted to take you far into places
Noone had been before
I wanted to try to make you understand
I never asked for more
And what I knew, I knew for you
And what I'd do, I'd do for you
I would not mind
I wanted to show you all the little things
That are so easy to pass by
Then you were gone
And winter came
And what I knew, I knew for you
And what I'd do, I'd do for you
I would not mind
