It was really cold this morning. This song was the response. The unexpected feelings took me to places I wasn’t expecting. I recorded it straightaway, as you can see from the amount of layers I’m wearing I hadn’t entirely warmed up.

Winter

The snow is warming me
Seducing me
And cleansing me
The snow will not harm me
If I believe
Then I can sleep

Christmas and the New Year and the Winter
Are my friends
I’m stripped like the trees, like the leaves
All life must end

The sun is shining now
On the snow
On frozen me
The sun will not warm me
Awaken me
And end my sleep

Forgiveness and freedom and the joy of life
Are my friends
I’ve survived another chilling not yet willing
For life to end
I’ve survived another winter
I’m warm again
