I reach within my isolation, I harbor it, I honor it You say you'd like to see me closer, of course you would, you have no choice
And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives silly pictures
Chorus: Hey now now now, hey now hey baby Baby's getting older, baby's getting older Hey now now now, hey now hey baby The tide is turning, turning us away
You build the wall I'll build the fountain, we'll wrestle it, we'll conquer it I think we'll live to see the mountain, of course we will we have no choice
And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives silly pictures
Repeat chorus
(one version) And I can remember forever december The center of dying, the heart of the pain The rose in the bottle, the thorns in the bottom The stars surround me, the cold astounds me
And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives pretty pictures
(another version)
And it won't take long, we both knew this Well I wasn't quite prepared For my center of dying, the heart of your pain All my words get lost and I can't speak Got my head stripped down, well I get weak And the words fall out like forever december But soon it won't matter 'cause she won't mean nothin'
