The sun hung heavy at the outset
Of our coterie of two
There were green leaves, calm seas
And everything was new
But time brought autumn to the doorstep
And we watched the light go
But we were safe and secure in the warmth
Of the afterglow
I can feel December closing in
I can feel the bite of winter in the wind
The current will come
The water will rise
We'll watch summer die
The current will come
The water will rise
Still love survives
Well, I've heard oaths sworn in summer sun
That break in the cold
But I've got faith in our anchor
And I'm gonna hold
I can feel December closing in
I can feel the bite of winter in the wind
The current will come
The water will rise
We'll watch summer die
The current will come
The water will rise
Still love survives
The current will come
The water will rise
We'll watch summer die
The current will come
The water will rise
Still love survives
The current will come
The water will rise
We'll watch summer die
The current will come
The water will rise
Still love survives
Summer dies, waters rise
Darker skies, love survives
Summer dies, waters rise
Darker skies, love survives
