Cinnamon - The Long Winters

Sun through the curtains

I gave you a sign

The birds all were quiet

You were so quiet

Some hear a call

Some are the messengers

I thumb through the pictures

And know them all

They said, do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

I have too many stories

Keeping it serious

Some are collectors

Keeping it straight

It was a hospital

I was delirious

I clung to the stretcher

I drew them a heart

They said, do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon

Two gondolas to carry us

Grand view was hilarious

St. paul was there to marry us

We lied, we’re already married

Cos, here’s proof, we have suntans

And i spoke up with my new hands

Listen to my car

What’s it telling us

Start… please start… please start

Do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Is it spring where you are

I waited all winter

Chasing the lampcords back to the wall

It’s a plausible scenario

I clung to the stretcher

I drew them a heart

They said, do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Do you remember where you saw her last

I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon

Her skin is cinnamon
