Lyric

The morning wakes to find a world of white

Beyond the window, in the pale morning light

The garden's covered in a silver frost

A silent world where all the noise is lost

I hold my breath and watch the frozen flowers

Caught in the stillness of the early hours

The morning dew begins to melt and fall

A feeling that I can’t quite name at all

Underneath the cold and empty sky

My heart was frozen, and I wondered why

But maybe when the sun begins to rise

The ice will start to fade before my eyes?

Frosty morning, I am thinking of you

Of a distant warmth that I once knew

Will there come a day when this frozen chest

Can finally melt and find a place to rest?

Clutching all these feelings, swaying in the deep

Bathed in the morning light I want to keep

I listen closely to the world around

A distant birdsong is the only sound

The "me" who lived until just yesterday

Has vanished like the frost and blown away

I trace the window with my fingertip

Watching the crystal patterns slide and slip

So beautiful and yet so easy to break

A fragile heart that's starting to awake

The memories are fragile, light and thin

Ready to vanish as the day begins

But still I want to keep them close to me

Locked in a box for all eternity

Frosty morning, tears begin to blur

Remembering the person that we were

I haven't said goodbye, I don't know how

But the ice is slowly melting even now

Clutching all these feelings, swaying in the deep

Waiting for the morning light to keep

When the sun is high, the frost will disappear

Leaving no trace that it was ever here

But when the night returns, it starts again

A new frost falling on the world of men

The heart is just the same, don't you see?

Frozen and melted for all history

Over and over, it’s the way we live

Learning to take and learning to give

Frosty morning, I am waking up anew

A different person, through and through

Even if this heart is frozen tight

It’s melting slowly in the morning light

Clutching all these feelings, swaying in the deep

Greeting a brand new day before I sleep

Frosty morning, you are gone away

But still I’m walking to a brand new day

Within the cold light, I will take a stand

Ready to face the world and take my hand

Clutching all these feelings, swaying in the deep

Reaching for the morning light to keep

The frost outside the window pane

Is melting away like the summer rain

Maybe my heart, in its own time

Will melt away in this winter's rhyme

Let it melt

Let it shine
