lyrics

It's just a pane of glass
This portrait's always changing
And it goes by way too fast
I can't keep up with daydreams
But it's still green today
Soon the colors will all turn
Like when you went away
Each season will adjourn

And leave us wondering
How do we get them back?
We long for autumn
Because it doesn't last
And our love was the summer

Staring through the glass
On the inside looking out
Just trying to make it last
Bearing witness, so devout
The sky will open up
And paint this scene a blinding white
Like when you said this was
Your dream for our whole life

And I'm stuck here wondering
How can I get it back?
The ground keeps melting
With everything we had
And our love was the winter

It's just a pane of glass
When the night erases
Every blade of grass
And the smiles on our faces
The yard was full of life
Now it's dull and overgrown
Like when you said good-bye
Each season will atone

And teach a lesson
We can never get it back
And I don't know
What to do with that
'Cause our love was forever
