Description
Prelude (2 of 2) Jack always understood high school crushes from movies, but he never experienced one himself. Until now. He sees her at a dance, is immediately drawn to her, but is too shy to say anything. He sees her at functions and hangs out with her friends, but never gets past awkward jokes. Naturally, Jack never makes a move. The girl is impregnated by a man in his 20s before graduation.
Lyrics
I close my eyes and look back at our picture Taken last winter. Our hands locked while on the ice Which has melted in my mind. Do you remember our dance last winter? For a second, our eyes met. But cold winter laid you on your back - Gave you a new summer life. (Chorus) Summer virgins die in autumn Put my heart in glass this winter Spring time crushes blown up again But I'll be coming home next winter. I'll be coming home next winter... I pray this winter you'll be on my doorstep But I know It's just another empty holiday With brown misletoe. That summer boy you knew is dead Please bury him withing your head. Will you be beneath my tree, Or will you keep unwrapping me? Chorus I don't know if my next winter Comes with a rearview mirror. I don't know if I'll be home for the holidays. Through all your presents next winter I hope you have time to remember To drop your flowers on this boy's winter grave. I'll be coming home next winter I'll be coming home next winter I'll be coming home next winter I'll be coming home next winter Winter...
