One More Winter With You

[Verse 1] The kettle's whistling low against the frost, your slippers by the door, one heel worn soft. I count your breaths beside me in the dark, the way you fold your hands to warm your heart. [Pre-Chorus] The calendar keeps thinning, page by page, and I don't want to hurry through this stage. [Chorus] Give me one more winter, one more slow December, your cold hands in my pocket, all the small things I'll remember. Let the snow keep falling till the streetlights go to blue — I'm not asking for forever, just one more winter with you. [Verse 2] You hum the songs you never learned the words, mismatched socks and coffee going cold. The window fogs, you draw a heart, then me, then laugh and wipe it clean so none can see. [Pre-Chorus] The doctor's letter's folded in the drawer. I closed it. I don't want to know the score. [Chorus] Give me one more winter, one more slow December, your cold hands in my pocket, all the small things I'll remember. Let the snow keep falling till the streetlights go to blue — I'm not asking for forever, just one more winter with you. [Bridge] If the last light of the year is you and me and this old chair, this crooked tree, then let it last, don't let it end — I'd trade the spring to keep you here again. [Chorus] Give me one more winter, one more quiet morning, your breath against my collar, and the kettle softly warning. Let the snow keep falling, let it bury what we knew — I'm not asking for forever, love, just one more winter with you. [Outro] Just one more. One more winter with you.
