Going somewhere

somehow we're goin' somewhere
meeting the winter with care
treating my mind with care
longin' for the sun not there

how come it's not there
not shining through my hair
it's frozen me into a deep sleep
hibernation time is here

has come out of nowhere
nature's little timebomb has gone off
bringin rain, cloudy days, stormy nights
blindin' light snow an' ice

right at your doorstep
another try to get through
thawing out the ice takin' what's mine
takin' what's there

it's been years, where's that smile
it was wiped out when I came back
from that long ride at the edge of life

Maybe now I can care or even love

coming from the past reaching
into my dreams, you've come to
me into the shadow of my thoughts

maybe now I can care or even
love

as long as you stay don't leave
me again, as you did when we
were kids took of an' you were
gone

you came into my thoughts
when I least expected it, in
my dreams you were caught

maybe now I can care or even
love

I do try to make you stay I want to
know where I can find you again
but my dreams are fading

not much time left now, so tell me
where are you 'cause I really care
I want you about

once you were in my world, something
I can't shake I shuffle my deck of cards
up comes the queen of hearts

you belong in my heart maybe now
I can care or even love, many do say
a dream's no fake

come back to me tonight and tell me
exactly where you hide 'cause I can
feel something's not right

once I know I'll come and take you
away from whatever it is that keeps
you caged

into the shade where we met and
laughed never realising what we
had after so much we shared

I think somehow now I can care
or even love
