If Winter Ends Lyrics

The song If Winter Ends is performed by Bright Eyes in the album named letting off the Happiness in the year 1998 .

I dreamt of a fever
One that would cure me of this cold winter set heart
Heats melt these frozen tears
Burned with reasons as to carry on

Into these twisted months
I'll plunge without a light to follow
But I swear that I would follow anything
Just get me out of here

She six months to adapt
And you get two more to leave town
And in the event that you do adapt
We still might not want you around

But I fell for the promise
Of a life with a purpose
But I know thats impossible now
And so I drink to stay warm
And to kill selected memories
'Cause I just cant think anymore about that
Or about her tonight

And I give myself three days to feel better
Or else I swear am driving off a f**king cliff
Because if I can't learn to make myself feel better
How can I expect anyone else to give a shit

And I scream for the sunlight
Or a car to take me anywhere
Just get me past this dead and eternal snow
'Cause I swear that I'm dying
Slowly but its happening
And if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere

Just take me there
Just take me there
Just take me there
And lie to me and say
And lie to me and say
It's going to be alright
Its going to be alright
Its going to be alright
...
