    Spring never feels so ethereal, so unreal, so far beyond our reach as it does when winter claws its icy grip about us, blinds us in her gaze and buries us in her drifts. But the hope still lays beneath the encrusted earth. Waiting.

    Story Behind the Song
    It started out as a poem to hopelessness. It was one of those moments where the whole of your life was falling away, dying, drifting, turning to ash. I found myself bordering on a complete lack of faith in anything, and, out of that utter despair, this came out.

    It's not really about believing in anything.. just hoping that belief will come. Just about the idea that if you're patient enough, some good will prevail, and the winter that preceeded the spring will seem delicious in its own way.

    Lyrics
    the winter has begun
    with crystal skies and distant sun
    my eyes have grown too numb with cold to see
    I'll wait until the thaw
    so I can touch the things I saw
    and hold the memories closer still to me

    close your eyes its snowing
    and you can feel the life preserving
    in the dark the lights are fading
    they're waiting for the spring
    close your arms its snowing
    all the fires we made are dying
    and the dreams we had are sleeping
    they're waiting
    waiting for the spring

    the snow's beyond our eyes
    it touches the sky
    the flowers fold their arms above their hair
    I've lost my life's connection
    as the winds all change direction
    the lights still burn in the streets below
    but no ones living there

    recall the warmth
    of sunrise
    they grow so deep within your mind
    we'll stay encased in a shell
    of waiting
    til we become what we wanted to find

    close your eyes its snowing
    and you can feel the life preserving
    in the dark the lights are fading
    they're waiting for the spring
    close your arms its snowing
    all the fires we made are dying
    and the dreams we had are sleeping
    they're waiting
    waiting for the spring
