lyrics

Chorus:
Long long winter
Met her in the spring time
Cold blooded sinner in the summer I’mma make her mine
Wanted her to change me
Can’t nobody save me
Left her when the leaves died

Verse:
Sitting by the sea side ‘ Told her I would keep her safe
Sure as the reaper breaks rocks into sand ‘ make shore
Hold hands ‘ take stroll ‘ make plans ‘ change world
into something more beautiful
You know ‘ the usual convo like who’s your favorite author
She’s really into Hawthorne ‘ I’m really into Chaucer
Heiress and a pauper ‘ Princess and pea brain
She came of her own free will ‘ We sang
well into the middle of the night ‘ with a fiddle and a mic
Just a little bit of light ‘ Smell nice like sunshine and daisy chain
Oh my amazing grace ‘ Skin like silk ‘ Hair like wool
She pushed ‘ pulled ‘ I pulled and I pushed
Took what I could ‘ Left what I couldn’t fit
Shouldn’t it be a little easier to let us sit
Underneath that Mississippi moonshine
Sweat dripping glistening like new bride
Ain’t nobody listening to whispers in the wind
and then the sinner starts to bend an ear to fool’s pride

Bridge:
War drums beating on the other side of the hill
Gotta leave the home that I only started to build
If I gotta die ‘ Least my baby’s gonna live
Maybe I’ll see her when the leaves come in

Chorus:
Long long winter
Met her in the spring time
Cold blooded sinner in the summer I’mma make her mine
Wanted her to change me
Can’t nobody save me
Left her when the leaves died
