I think I'd rather wait for the winter to come
I never make a move when I'm out in the sun
I'll be ready to forgive your foolish mistake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
I need a good night of sleep and I need a little more time
I need to sleep for a few months before I make up my mind
I'll be up early in the morning and wide awake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
I've seen your face in a dream, I've heard your name in a vision
I give myself a season before I make a decision
My nails will be steady, my hands won't shake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
There's a lot of things I'm doing I've never thought I could do
There's a lot a places in the world that I will never get to without you
Right now I need to stay home
And I don't need your company
Right now I need to be alone
And I need you to stay away from me
I love the smell of your hair, and the blue of your eyes
But you're far too complicated an you tell a lot of lies
I'll see what's right and what's wrong, I'll see what's true and what's fake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
And then I'll send out invitation to my family and friends
They will come all the way from Sweden, they will come all the way from France
My brother will bless the wine, and my sister will bake a cake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
Then when the time is right, and when I think I understand
When I forget that you've run away, that you've been with another man
You'll come to me crawling as fast as a snake
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
There's a lot of things I'm doing I've never thought I could do
There's a lot a places in the world that I will never get to without you
Right now I need to stay home
And I don't need your company
Right now I need to be alone
And I need you to stay away from me
Come on Brother
And then in the white of the snow and in the quiet of nature
I will ask you to stay with me, no matter the temperature
And I hope you'll say yes, and won't try to escape
When the water gets cold and freezes on the lake
