Air of December

Thursday afternoon, you cast a shadow 'round my room

The breeze moved the curtains and lifted my perfume into the air

And danced with lazy curls in your hair

The sun was in the sky, like pink champagne

And it glistened in your eyes all day

I-I remember you put a chill across my face

Like the air of December, I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Where are you?

Stood by the lake, I wanted to take you for granted

The grass was thin and high, the water mirrored tiny sparkles to the sky

I-I remember you put a chill across my face

Like the air of December, I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

"Won't you stay and see?" I hear you say

Driving in the shallow wind, you'll never be yourself again

Never will be what you were, all at once it took ya

You'll nevermore will be, where are you now?

Oh

Oh, oh

In the by-myself mornings, the birds wind chime, the tree limbs crackle

And the sunshine climbs up the sky

Like the pink champagne that glistened in your eyes all day

The sparkle in your eyes all day

A twinkle in your eyes all day

I remember you put a chill across my face

Like the air of December, I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it that way

I swear I remember it

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Where are you?

Where are you now?

Won't you stay, stay, stay, stay?

Driving in the shallow wind, you'll never be yourself again

You'll never will be what you were, all at once, it will occur

You never will be what you were

What you were

What you were

What you were now

What you were when you lived with me

What you were

What you were to me

Oh, baby

What you were to me

Oh, now

You never will be what you were

What you were

What you were to me

I remember what you used to be

But you'll never, never be

What you were
