Blizzards and Bygones (All Frost and No Thaw Version)

Back when the angels of heaven would sing
 Days when I still made you feel something
 And before what might be
 Became what's already been
 Blizzards and bygones
 The frost and no thaw
 Airways constricting
 And vessels withdraw
 And you look around but find yourself all alone
 And you hunker down but the cold's
 Already in your bones
 There's a flicker of desire
 And a memory of youth
 A faintly
 Glowing fire for some truth
 I lit a fire / it started then stopped / Elements will conspire / and mercury drop
 Can you stand the weather / if winter lasts forever?
