lyrics

winter, winter
emeraldine descent
winter, winter
show me your assent

glossing over
the body of the text
the spring will show
the leaves all dead

whisk me away
though we know it's too late
(summer drained the grass)
this could be our great escape

undulate
(the emeralds turned grey)
the veins grow too great
for the blood to concentrate
and by then you'll be miles away
(but the rain is miles away)

so whisk me away
take me away
eventually the autumn sun will come
and then we'll run away
to make our great escape
