Wake up in April


what if we find ourselves beneath the snow
our warmest words all frozen in our throats
and all we feel is left out in the cold
you and i?


what if the days grow short and lose their light
what if the coals burn black and the embers die
and we can't find each other in the night
you and i?


even the winter won't last forever
we'll see the morning
we'll feel the sun


we'll wake up in April
ready and able
holding the seeds in the soil 
of our love


what if the ice we tread is just too thin
what if we can't escape the squall we're in
what if our hearts of stone are permanent
you and i?


what if the spring comes soon and we're surprised
what if the seasons help us realize
some things are only proven over time
you know


 even the winter won't last forever
we'll see the morning, we'll feel the sun
we'll wake up in April, ready and able
sowing the seeds in the soil


even the darkness cannot disarm us
we'll see the morning, we'll feel the sun
we'll break up the earth
cause we know that it's worth it
sowing the seed in the soil

of our love.


[even the winter - audrey assad]
