Winter Solstice Baby - The Speed of Sound in Seawater

That came out all wrong

Tangled and twisted

I wish a cure for

My cold tongue existed

On top of the world

I’m such a cool cat

Living alone

Among ice caps

Smile with your eyes

Thaw the heart I claim

Soften hard hexes

Make warmer my domain

That all came out wrong

Heres’s what I meant to say

Was how I’d prefer you

Cruel, cold and grey

That came out all wrong

Here’s what I meant to do

Put you up in a castle

Not an igloo

Smile with your eyes

Thaw the heart I hold

Where now pumps warm red blood

Banishing the cold

You are my sun

Winter has begun

Where did you go?

Out in the snow?

Smile with your eyes

Change snow to rain

Where I once felt your warmth

I now feel only pain

I’ll find new warmth

And move away

A brighter sun

I’m glad that you didn’t stay
