Winter Song Lyrics

Well, I can't say that I miss my old dog much
Yet, I've never looked back since I left home long ago
But I hoped a trip into the country
Would help remind me all the things I used to know

That's what I came for
That's what I hoped for

There once was good blood in the breeze here
We rode across the lake each new year
What have I remembered?
What did this used to be?

The ice, it used to shine upon our river
It was a mirror that the cold dark water
Ran away deep beneath
And here were many years of winter drownings
I kept track of these things as they were told to me

That's what I came for
That's what I hoped for

There once was good blood in the breeze here
We rode across the lake each new year
What have I remembered?
What did this used to be?

The changes of the year were once a blessing
But this year they're the seasons of my discontent
But I cannot rewrite my old diaries
I can only recall all the things that came and went

That's what I came for
That's what I hoped for

There once was good blood in the breeze here
We rode across the lake each new year
What have I remembered?
What did this used to be?

What have I remembered?
What did this used to be?
