December Rose I've always known everything dies CHORUS: The winters used to swallow me whole CHORUS All I need is to remember CHORUS
Just as a rose in the hold of a winter's night
All of its colour just bleeds away
Silently fading into black
The dream is the same every time
The one where your hand is a breath too far from mine
No way to stop you from falling
Helpless to ever bring you back
All I need is to remember
And I can have the smell of roses in December
You're the angel that saved me, the spirit that prays for me
The voice I hear when I’m all alone
You’re the memory that lingers, on my breath and my fingers
The greatest love I’ll ever know
You’re with me everywhere I go
You’re my December Rose
A bitter reflection of the ice down inside my soul
Years of hiding from everything
Left me with no safe place to go
You brought me a picture of a rose
To help me remember the sun and to give me hope
You lifted me up from under
The weight of those years of heavy snow
You showed me how I could remember
So I could have the smell of roses in December
So I can have the smell of roses in December
