The timing was off the night you knocked on my door
It was a terrible storm, the wind nearly blew my heart out
What good is snow, if only to erase the world?
What good are you, if you are only for yourself and no one else?
So scared and tongue tied, my fair weather friend
Do I place you back on the shelf or kiss you again?
Go on, as you like, we’ll continue this dance
Go on, walk right by, pretend I don’t exist
Faithless, out of sight, I descend
Through the dark of my manic mind, Leyda’s revenge
But I can see it in your eyes, the feeling’s there
And when you wander back to me, will I even be here?
So scared and tongue tied, my fair weather friend
Do I place you back on the shelf or kiss you again?
Go on, as you like, we’ll continue this dance
Go on, walk right by, pretend I don’t exist
