Philip Labes Wintertime Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's gray, it's white and it's gray
After my show you gave me a bouquet
Yellow is sunflower, red Cabernet
But everything sweet is just hidden decay

[Verse 2]
It's white, it's graphite on white
I handle my pencil and think of your bite
I scribble my lyrics and worry all night
I'll never be so loved again in my life
[Pre-Chorus]
And am I going to feel like this
Every single day for the rest of my life?

[Chorus]
Wintertime
Just go to bed, it's not gonna happen
Wintertime
Tomorrow I heard it'll snow
Wintertime
Ice on thе lake, tracks in the cabin
Let's rеst for a time
It's gonna be fine

[Verse 3]
It's green, it's yellow and green
It's snotty and rotten, a jealous machine
And look at my numbers up there on the screen
From my predictable, typical dream

[Verse 4]
It's red, magenta and red
The stains that we left from the wine on my bed
I wish I had your body, I wish I was dead I wish you were the human I had
[Pre-Chorus]
And am I going to feel like this
Every single day for the rest of my life?

[Chorus]
Wintertime
Just go to bed, it's not gonna happen
Wintertime
Tomorrow I heard it'll snow
Wintertime
Ice on the lake, tracks in the cabin
Let's rest for a time
It's gonna be fine, it's gonna be fine

[Bridge]
If I let the snow cover my colors, gonna be fine
I've got nothing to lose, lose, lose, it's...

[Verse 5]
Blues, it's whites and it's blues
I made four records to get over you
When I look back at the colors I used
Did I get better or dig at the bruise?

[Verse 6]
It's black, it's black and it's black
It hops down my throat and it sits on my back
The emptiness seeps out of every crack
The nothing that nothing can ever hold back
[Outro]
And am I going to feel like this
Every single day for the rest of my life?
No!
