The northern lights adjust
To suit the mood of the night at hand
Like fading fireworks
They light the pathway as best they can
And like a penny falls
Into an open purse
The sky is losing snow
And won't be reimbursed

The white flakes scattered across the sky
Look like polka dots in the twilight
Your frozen fingers have gripped mine tight
And I am happy to be by your side

The nights are growing old
The days are growing a tougher skin
My scarf is butter-soft
The ice I'm skating is wafer-thin
Now lets bet you and I
Are two peas in a pod
The odds are looking good
The goods are looking odd

Chorus

Like frost I will be there on the ground by the door
Waiting for your footprint to fall to the floor
Just like frost I'll cling to your window outside
Gathering ice like you gather my pride
Well just like frost on your nose when it's cold
I'll be on your mind as the seasons unfold
And just like frost I'll melt away
And miss you more than words convey

Chorus
