What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
She placed her ring on the sill,
2
dishes piled high
3
She's on the front porch step
4
and the air smells like snow
5
She's thinking of the siege to come
6
and how she'll miss those weekends
7
in the park with the sun on her face
8
and her book by her side and that
9
lingering taste that he left on her tongue
10
He lifts his glass from the table
11
It leaves a ring where it stood
12
He sees the light from the window
13
caress her like he knows he should
14
He's remembering the first time he kissed her
15
and how he'd wake
16
and immediately he'd miss her,
17
like a spell, with each breath,
18
he'd taste her breath like a haunting,
19
irritating as hell
20
Do you remember when you'd pray
21
to never see the day
22
when someone would make you feel this way
23
'Cause you knew
24
they would cut right through you
25
and once inside, you were afraid they'd find
26
nothing to hold on to
27
He puts her ring on her finger,
28
she brushes back his hair
29
He takes a sip from his glass,
30
she inhales the cold fall air
31
And they're thinking of the long road ahead
32
and the strength that they will need
33
just to reach the end
34
And there in the silence they search for
35
the balance between this fear that they feel
36
and a love that has graced their lives
