Winter Killing

On cold days it is
 Easy to behave and
 Easy to believe in it
 On cold days it is
 Easy to see clear and
 Easy to believe in it
 You say winter's killing you
 That you can't stand the season
 It has no smell or flavor
 I left the city for you
 There was no other reason
 I did your wife a favour
 You're safer with me here
 You're safer with me here
 You're safer with me here
 And you there
 I took the fast track
 Considered crying
 I was stopped in customs
 Quite proud of the knack
 I have of knowing
 When it's over
 You're safer with me here
 You're safer with me here
 You're safer with me here
 And you there
 With a bit of ice under my clothes
 My tongue against the teeth
 I think of nothing
 Walk around the house on the cold
 'Til it hurts to breath
 I think of nothing
 I knew I had to leave
 'Cause spring was coming
 You'd made a lover out of me
 And spring was coming
 I'm safer with me here
 I'm safer with me here
 I'm safer with me here
 And you there
