Ashes In Winter Light

[Verse 1]
It's true
My life has been full of regrets, baby
For me
It's been the only way it could be
Maybe
Remember the night I broke your favorite chair?
Perfectly
We threw the pieces into the fire
It was January

[Bridge]
And watched the fire burn through the night
Then woke to ash in winter light

[Chorus]
And I'd drag you off to bed, sleepyhead
As the sounds of the school yard
Drifted through our dreams

[Verse 2]
It's strange going back there
Everyone's gone
It's natural
People move out, people pass on
Like my mom
We slept in her hospital room every night
Together
And when she couldn't talk anymore
We sang to her

[Chorus]
And when you're all alone, pretty baby
I'll meet you in the deep
'Til you're fast asleep
And when the city's burning, little baby
I'll climb to your window
And carry you away

[Verse 3]
It's true
My life has been full of regrets, baby
Sometimes I wonder if you'd take it all back
Never
You're still the only one I can talk to
What you gonna do?
You've gotta journey around the bend
To make it start again

[Outro]
Make it start again
Make it start again
Make it start again
Make it start again
