Winter Covered Your Alibis

Autumn’s cool breeze is over, girl The leaves have danced their last Memories of you drip out the edges Of swollen eyes tied to our past This chapter will never be read aloud I doubt that others will ever know We’d moved beyond the simple surface You were so close to touching my soul We never made it to being a couple But we were quickly more than friends The infatuation of those October skies Looks quite different now in Winter’s lens Those scribbles of yours.. once poetry Love songs that ran along Fall’s breeze I thought you were melting into my blues Then I saw another you sought to please You giggled and you sighed Looked at him with wanton eyes And the snow dropped from the skies Until it covered all your alibis True love is not a captor’s contest Intimacy to one heart, never a crowd Those sweet nothings I wanted for me You voiced to many.. yes you wowed I saw you whisper to one a love song Then to others.. just a friendly kiss You teased them all with your sexy lines Love had me blind how could i miss... You giggled and you sighed Looked at him with wanton eyes And the snow dropped from the skies Until it covered all your alibis Winter covered your alibis Winter covered your alibis Winter covered your alibis ~Lyric Man Note: I wanted to write a deep song about true love and how incredible it is.. and as such, it’s devastating when you think you have love and all you have is a memory (and a painful one at that). True love is intimacy to one person. Love can cool faster than coming Winter when you learn your singleness of heart and mind have not been reciprocated!

A tinge of sadness and beautiful lyrics.Love can soothe the pain but it can cut like a knife when its a one sided love...Am deeply moved.

Winter covered alibis, nice concept Dave, well chosen words, great execution, could hear the melody in my mind...that's a good sign!! Betrayal is the worst, seems like more and more people are experiencing it these days, where's the loyal love?

When its one sided you surely feel the winters chill, well written lyric Dave. Tom.

There certainly is a chill in the air, while reading these words. The cold wind of winter hurts less, than this feeling you share here. When you feel so close to someone, and they don't feel the same way. It is painful indeed. Especially if they are not being true to who they are. Your thoughts touch me deeply. ~ Brandy
