John McDermott - Winter Clothes

When our love was new
Through spring's first morning sun
We'd run, only beginning
I never gave a thought
That sun and seasons change
It's strange, so soon it's the ending

Let me get my overcoat
Let me get my hat
When I'll lose the warmth of you
I'll need that
Let me put my rain shoes on
I'll need some of those
When I'll leave the warmth of you
I suppose I'll need my winter clothes Need my winter clothes

I never will forget
My summer sorceress
Your dress, light as the laughter
And golden leaves that fell
Like notes from a lover's song
Gone wrong, lost ever after

Let me get my overcoat
I'll need my scarf and gloves
When I'll face the chill of night
Without my love
Let me put my rain shoes on
