Bird In December Lyrics

It sure is cold this morning
They're hangin' lights in the trees downtown
The Indian summer is over
The fall fell away and blew out with the cold northern windHe swore forever
Couldn't measure his love
But she's all alone under
Gray skies aboveLike a bird in December
Who didn't fly south
Time just ran outShe's a bird in December
Hearts that love blind
Sometimes get left behindHer feathers are too bright for this dull town
Her colors are all wasted here
She followed him here for the summer
But like seasons all disappear, suddenly he was goneIt's all so much clearer
Watching from the outside
We all saw it coming
She didn't get out in timeShe's a bird in December
Who didn't fly south

Time just ran outShe's a bird in December
Hearts that love blind
Sometimes get left behindOh, the winter won't last, the sun will come out
Well, I know she'll find love again but right nowShe's a bird in December
Like a bird in December
Who didn't fly south
Time just ran outShe's a bird in December
Hearts that love blind
Sometimes get left behindThe storm, it won't last
December will pass
