Now the summer's gone, And the winter's coming on, And I wait for you, But I know that you have gone away from me, And I know, yes I know It's gonna be a lonely winter.
Just to walk alone, And leave all the love we've known. Autumn leaves will fall. Wish winter would only call you back to me. And I know, yes I know It's gonna be a lonely winter.
It, I know, could be a very long time. I can't make your love mine, Mine and mine alone. But I know that I can't make you love me, I can't make you want me, Till the winter's gone.
Leaves begin to fall, And the trees begin to bare. Then I wait for you, But I know that you're not here. You've gone away. And I know, yes I know It's gonna be a lonely winter.
