lyrics

Just another northeast kid,
Too used to winter wind,
Peeling back his summer skin.

While,
waiting for a sun,
That only does the same.

And a northbound girl,
Just looking for a home,
In any kind of distance that will,
keep her home state
far away.

I was hoping that the winter
would come to keep us warm,
Cause nothing makes you closer,
Than short days in the cold,
When home is nowhere you can be.

But my friends down South,
They say they,
Don't miss New England weather.

Whether I been thinking 'bout the closest train,
and how they always make it back the 25th
Whether close or far away.

And I'm still hoping,
That the cold,
Will keep us close.

But old wool coats and layered clothes,
Are taking the place,
Of what's rightfully yours.

So I'll remember my mistress,
Through miles worth winter though
both engaged with distance
We're not married to our fate.

And I know the seasons,
They change,
Even when you're far away.

But it's never been a matter,
Of what's measured in between,
But only what it takes to measure up,
To who we need to be.

Just another northeast kid,
Too used to winter wind reminding him,
The cold keeps distance close.

When all you want to have just,
Hasn't been
is something that,
The seasons never change.
