Winter stole the fall from me
The chill cuts me straight to the bone
The darkness casts a loneliness
And the house creaks and it moans
You always loved our old home
But you hated this season
And then you up and left
Without a rhyme or reason
I wonder where you are tonight?
And if you are out there your own
It's dark at night this time of year
But it's darker when you're alone
The wind whips evilly outside
And it stirs up our old ghosts
I just can't confront the facts
And that's what hurts the most
My mind's stuck in those shadows
And there are details I can't recall
That old sun can barely rise
Before it shrugs and then falls
So I waitin' on the spring
And sittin' next to the phone
My hearts hoping it can thaw
Or stop the ache to which it's prone
I wonder where you are tonight?
And if you are out there on your own
It's dark at night this time of year
But it's darker when you're alone
When you're all alone
It's always midnight
When you're all alone
