Couples bundle up underneath the covers
Trying to keep each other warm

And from the Sierra Nevada a strong wind was blowing
Mayor Tom had arranged a meeting for that same afternoon
And the venue was in the upstairs room...

Let me change my toning
Skills mastered and others still honing

Wind is blowing can't stop it, stop
And I don't care about you
My mind eyes views are frozen
I've got a cold stone heart
I'm feelin bitter
In my winter

This solstice...
