Maybe if things were different I'd take a hold of you
Meet me in the summer when it's hard to breathe, I'll say to you
Everything is safer in my arms it's what I'm yearning to
Meet me in december when my breath will freeze the morning dew
And if you take my hand
We'll stay fine till it ends
And if you don't understand
I'll trade for the plans
Maybe if things stayed the same then I'd run away from you
Leave me in the spring when it rains I'll probably say to you
Nothing really matters in your arms it's what I'm dying to
Leave me in the fall when the leaves change beside us too
I'll take another bottle and a cigarette for drowning me
I'll push away the hands of those kind enough to cradle me
You will drown your sorrows in the absence of the make believe
No happy endings but I know that we wish there could be
And if you take my hand
We'll stay fine till it ends
And if you don't understand
I'll trade for the plans
