do you recall that winter evening

the night that i first said i'm leaving

hoping

you would change my mind

i lay my head upon your knes and

whispered please but inside i was

leaving

i'm the leaving kind

i could put you off forever

this longing has no end

how long

'til you and i can be together

how long

until we see this through

how long

untill we know that this is forever

'til i say i love you

should i say i love you

can i say i love you

we've got to see this through

and when the burning leaves are falling

i can always hear you calling

fearing

that we are losing ground

but in our secret hearts we're knowing

our love is winter and it's snowing

falling

comfort coming down

i cut put you off forever

this longing has no end

advertising lasts a lifetime

if not now, then when
