Forever December (later version)

I 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 cause all their lives are silly pictures

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

 

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

We'll wrestle it and we'll conquer it

I think we'll live to see the mountain

Well of course we will

We have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me

I laugh at the people that I can't be cause all their lives are 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 it won't take long, we both knew this

And I wasn't quite prepared

For my center of dying

The heart of your pain

All my words get lost and I can't speak

Got my head stripped down, well I get weak

And the words fall out like forever December

Soon it won't matter, she won't mean nothin'

She don't mean nothin', she won't mean nothin'

 

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me

I laugh at the people that I can't be cause all their lives are pretty pictures

 

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, baby's getting older

She don't mean nothing

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

The tide is turning, don't turn me away

She don't mean nothin'

Hey now now now hey now hey baby

Baby's getting older, my baby's getting older

She don't mean nothing

Hey now now now now hey now hey baby

Yeah, the tide is turning, don't turn me away
