[Spoken Intro]
Okay. We're gonna play one slow one, so you can slow dance, and then we'll play the fast ones

[Verse 1]
Winter's quiet loneliness
Wraps itself against my will
It's a coat that's a bit tattered
But it's keeping out the chill
I'm sure my mean condition
It's entirely my own choice
But I just can't help but smile
Whenever I hear your voice

[Verse 2]
The pill was hard to swallow
Not quite as bitter as before
Hey, maybe it means I'm growing harder
But I would be the last to know
My God, I wish that I was innocent, wish I was innocent
At least I think I do
If I had her as a gift to bring, a gift to bring
Well, I would bring that gift to you

[Chorus]
And here comes the avalanche
All my path is covered
So leave a light on for the lovers
Oh, oh
[Verse 3]
"Mercy": there's a word
We could drown in every moment
Little splash across the rocks at 5 p.m
If I can count on my components
No, no, that potion won't help anyone, won't help anyone
To try and tell the truth
No, no, that key, it won't unlock the door, won't unlock the door
To the prison cell or womb

[Chorus]
And here comes the avalanche
All my path is covered
Leave a light on for the lovers
Oh, oh
Leave a light on for the lovers

[Verse 4]
I have a picture
I wish it was a photograph
You were holding little children
Right there upon your lap
It's never cold in that picture
As far as I can tell
Outside, outside, the rain has changed to snow, it's changed to snow
And it's frozen in the well, in the well
[Chorus]
And here comes the avalanche
All my path is covered
So leave a light on for the lovers
Oh, oh
Leave a light on for the lovers
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Leave a light, leave a light for the lovers
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Leave a light, leave a light for the lovers, for the lovers, for the lovers, oh, oh
