Forever December (earlier version)

Reach within my isolation

I harbor it, I honor it

You say you'd like to see me closer

Of course you would

You have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me

And I laugh at the people that I can't be, all their lives, silly pictures

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, turn us away

 

You'll build the wall, I'll build the fountain

We'll wrestle it, we'll conquer it

I think we'll live to see the mountain

Of course we will

We have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me

And I laugh at the people that I can't be, all their lives, silly pictures

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, don't turn me away

 

And I can't remember, forever december

The sense of it dying

The heart of the pain

The rose in the bottle

Thorn's in the bottom

Stars surround me

The cold astounds me

Astounds

 

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me

And I laugh at the people that I can't be, all their lives, pretty pictures

 

Baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, turn us away

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, turn us away

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, turn us away
