I dream of the winter 
in my heart turning to spring 
while the ice gives way under my feet 
and so I drown with the sun

I've been burning in water 
and drowning in flame 
to prove you wrong and scare you away 
I admit my defeat and want back home 
in your heart 
under the rose

I open my eyes with a sigh of relief 
as the warmth of summer's sunlight 
dances around me 
and I see you with dead leaves in your hands
