I've been waiting for the frost
To come and kill this summer
Too happy were we
To end any other way
Forewarned, I pleaded for a quick end
For winter to finally come
And take you from me
As I knew it would
So I wouldn't have to bury more memories
But now, as your eyes turn to ice
The chill fills the air, freezing me
I know
I pushed too hard for that end
