Every December Sky

Every December sky must lose its faith in leaves

And dream of the spring inside the trees

How heavy the empty heart

How light the heart that's fullSometimes, I have to trust what I can't know

Sometimes, I have to trust what I can't knowWe walk into paradise

The angels lend us shoes

'Cause all that we own

We'll come to loseAnd heaven is not so far

Outside this womb of words

With every rose that blooms

My soul is assuredIt's just like a song I've known

Yet still unheardAnd every leaf of fire lets go

Melting in the arms of earth and snow

And if I could hold you now

You'd enter like a sighYou'd be the wind that blows

The answer to 'Why?'

You'd be the spring-filled trees

Of every December sky
