We met in the winter

It fits us like we fit each other

We feel at home with the sun focused on

The Tropic Of Capricorn

Pale afternoon skies

Dark by five

Clean, brittle evenings lit by yuletide lights

We met in the winter

And winter

Winter just feels right

The Piccadilly window displays

To which we gravitate

Forgotten beaches

These isles asleep and decayed

When the clocks go backwards

It’s a step in the right direction

With the harvest in 

And winter on the horizon

We met in the winter

And winter 

Winter is our season

Winter is our season

Winter is our season

The Piccadilly window displays

To which we gravitate

Forgotten beaches

These isles asleep and decayed

We met in the winter

It fits us like we fit each other

We feel at home with the sun focused on

The Tropic Of Capricorn
