Lyrics

It's gonna be a long, dark winter
Bundle up, here comes the cold
Yearning for times that were simpler
Or so we're told

Time slows to a snail's pace
Summer seems so long ago
They say this used to be a nice place
But I don't know

What I'd give to feel the sun's rays
Really any warmth at all
Shining as well through the thick haze
As a brick wall

Green and blue were so much better
All there is to see is grey
We can not get any wetter
Or so they say

Can't say that I miss the long lines
I sure don't miss them much
But I miss exchanging handshakes
And smiles, hugs, and such

Someone long ago once told me
Things would get better with time
I'm sure I'd disagree
If it weren't a crime

I once yearned for peace and quiet
Seemed a nice break from the grind
I don't recommend you try it
You'll lose your mind

Icicles for ears and fingers
Not to mention nose and toes
A bitter feeling lingers
Why no one knows

Can't say that I miss the long lines
I sure don't miss them much
But I miss exchanging handshakes
And smiles, hugs, and such
