i do not care for the winter sun

Beach House

Snowflakes that fall across my eyes
Cannot compare to a dark surprise
What s new becomes old, what s old is new
When I first laid my eyes on you

I do not care for the winter sun
Windows and fires or the bridge you re on
It doesn t matter
This time of year

Though darkness comes so quick in time
Shortens our days to longer nights
Build a blue fire and kneel beside
Snowflakes that fall across our eyes

It s all that matters
This time of year
It s all that matters
This time of year
