lyrics
Winter Socks
I put on my winter socks, & take you for a run,
Your voice is like, a silent storm,
The music stands up next to Joni Mitchell on my playlist,
You’re with me every twist and turn.
Twist and turn.
We slip and slide, through the wild,
London is the countryside, in lost forgotten places,
Mud, knows no airs and graces.
I need you like the morning needs the sun,
Like the birds need sloes when winter comes.
I feel you close , everywhere I go
Close , everywhere I go
I pull up, my winter socks
folding forwards, I can see a world amongst the grass,
A fading clovers final gasp,
Like disco lights, the lifting dew,
I’d share this whole wide world with you, Coz…
I need you like a child needs to run,
Like a junky needs to feel the pain before the flow,
Like the winter needs the snow.
I feel you close , everywhere I go
Close , everywhere I go
Close, oooooooo
