Bitter Winds

Leaves turnin' brown, it's down to 54

Cold is moving into Texas and it's moving out the warm

These bitter winds, comin' soon again

Chapped lips asking for tips, tryna find more love to lend, oh

And family ties are moving closer in

Find the time to hear the chimes of a wedding once again

I need it bad, more than I did before

To feel the warmth of a fire and a woman that I adore, oh

Can this all please slow down?

Another year is burning out

The sun don't wait for someone like me

Who's got more wants than needs

So I'll sit still as seasons move on

I hate to watch 'em leave

I hate to watch 'em leave

I see your breath while I'm holding mine

Your face lit up by the moon, my face lit up by your eyes

I'm singing songs, the family sings along

With my feet buried in the gravel, my heart buried in my wrongs, and

Can this all just please slow down?

Another year is burning out

The sun don't wait for someone like me

Who's got more wants than needs

So I'll sit still as seasons move on

Though I hate to watch 'em leave

I hate to watch 'em leave

It won't be long, today will carry on

Till tomorrow is the past, the future is long gone, and

Can this all please slow down?

Another year is burning out

The sun don't wait for someone like me

Who's got more wants than needs

So I'll sit still as seasons move on

Though I hate to watch 'em leave

Hate to watch 'em leave
