The Long Winters
Cinnamon
Sun through the curtains
I gave you a sign
The birds all were quiet
You were so quiet
Some hear a call
Some are the messengers
I thumb through the pictures
And know them all

They said, do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

I have too many stories
Keeping it serious
Some are collectors
Keeping it straight
It was a hospital
I was delirious
I clung to the stretcher
I drew them a heart

They said, do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon

Two gondolas to carry us
Grand view was hilarious
St. paul was there to marry us
We lied, we're already married
Cos, here's proof, we have suntans
And i spoke up with my new hands
Listen to my car
What's it telling us
Start... please start... please start

Do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon

Is it spring where you are
I waited all winter
Chasing the lampcords back to the wall
It's a plausible scenario
I clung to the stretcher
I drew them a heart

They said, do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Do you remember where you saw her last
I said, her skin is cinnamon, her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon
Her skin is cinnamon
