I Smell Winter

Now the sun was in my eyes

So forgive me if I was blind

But I can suddenly see the light

Now the blinds are raised,

Now he's finally spoken

Winter's finally broken

Realise I'm heading for colder days

He can feel it just around the corner

He can feel it on every breath

And something tells him its good goodbye summer

And something tells him, its the kiss of death

Losing at the tracks, loosens all his taps, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

Theres a chill down my spine, but the weather's fine, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

You better button up your coat

Or it will catch you in the pit of the throat

You can certainly feel the wind blow

When your by yourself,

And when the snow has finally melted

You better think about who you shelter

'Cos one of these days it might just be someone else

And he's searched underground and overground for a partner

Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw

He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer

So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw

Losing at the tracks, loosens all his taps, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

Theres a chill down my spine, but the weather's fine, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

I smell winter

I smell winter

I smell winter

I.....(smell winter)

And he's searched underground and overground for a partner

Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw

He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer

So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw

Losing at the tracks, loosens all his taps, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

Theres a chill down my spine, but the weather's fine, I smell winter on his breath

(I smell winter)

I smell winter

(I smell winter)

I smell winter

(I smell winter)
