Lyrics
[Intro] A cold morning, I held your hands Two cups cooling by the window We had no map, we had no plans And a little room to grow [Verse 1] The rain keeps falling on your coat sleeve I had questions I could not hide We were in the garden behind the station I watched the leaves fall by our side We learned to wait until tomorrow Walking slowly while time goes by I hear our song play on the radio A thousand feelings cross my mind [Pre-Chorus] If our world was only for us Why was I afraid to breathe? You said, “Stay until the morning comes” And I'm still right here [Chorus] We were four seasons in one heart Turning, turning, never still Spring began where we began Summer burned against your skin When the leaves fell to the ground, I kept you, I held on Through the frost and falling snow If the birds can find a way back home Maybe we can find our way back where we belong [Verse 2] Summer found us by the water Salt and sunlight on your skin We missed the last train out of town So we stayed till night began Your laugh rose above the silence I kept every sound like gold We made a kingdom, a castle of sand for us And promised we would never grow old [Pre-Chorus] With the windows down and nowhere planned The whole horizon opened wide You pressed your fingers into mine And I forgot the time [Chorus] We were four seasons in one heart Turning, turning, never still Spring began where we began Summer burned against your skin When the leaves fell to the ground, I kept you, I held on Through the frost and falling snow If the birds can find a way back home Maybe we can find our way back where we belong [Bridge] Autumn came and changed everything Your voice sounded far away We argued over small things That were larger than we could say The trees released their colors One by one across the road I reached for you in the evening But your hand felt like a place I used to know [Chorus] We were four seasons in one heart Turning, turning, never still Spring began where we began Summer burned against your skin When the leaves fell to the ground, I kept you, I held on Through the frost and falling snow If the birds can find a way back home Maybe we can find our way back where we belong [Post-Chorus] Come back, come back, come back to me Round and round, the year turns quietly Come back, come back, come back to me Maybe we'll remember what we used to be [Outro] Winter brought the distance between us I could hear the room grow colder Maybe there's no turning back But I'm still waiting where you left me I left the lamp beside the window In case the wind can bring you back Come back, come back, come back to me Come back, come back, come back to me Come back, come back, come back to me Come back, come back, come back to me
