It was a warm love in a northern town
It was the right time for settling down
It was a storm brought you to my door
I didn't ask for your love, but I couldn't ask for more
I saw the sun come out yesterday
I felt our love melting away
Believe me when I say I'm gonna miss your face
Walking away I wonder, do you know this place?
Between the white earth and the black night
When a love's going wrong but it's still all right
If only half of me wants to let go
Can I go and come back like the snow?
They were good reasons I became your bride
It's nothing you did wrong, that's not why I cried
But pressure here, it's in my own heart
And it's beating me up, it'll push us apart
Because I'm not the same girl as when we met
And I know that I'll change again, yet
What if I come to miss your love?
All through the rainy southern winters, I'll be dreaming of
The white earth and the black night
When a love's going wrong but it's still all right
If only half of me wants to let go
Can I go and come back like the snow?
Does only half of you want me to go?
Can I turn and grow back like the green leaves turn yellow?
Can't I lift and fall back like the snow?
