Lyrics

I sit and I stare at the picture on the wall
the one you painted just for me
I see in the lines a simple sadness there
a message that says your going to leave.

Now I don't blame December at all
for taking you away from me
Its a simple kind of saddens when the one you love is gone
Its a lonely wind across the sea.

And this cold night goes on forever and all I want to do is die
for I don't know if I can make it though my life without you by my side.

Now I know its going to hurt to see you go
because I feel your a part of me
but I'm not going to stand in your way
and I know you've got to find your dreams

And this cold night goes on forever I wish you we nestled here in my arms
cause I'm gonna miss you more than you could ever know
when all I got left is this song.

So I sit and I stare at the picture on the wall
the one you painted just for me
A silver white dove sailing through the sky
flying so high and so free.


And this cold night goes on forever and all I want to do is die
for I don't know if I can make it though my life without you by my side.
