Every year the winter tries to kill us
After we get used to the warmth
And we know exactly what’s coming but we try to prepare
As the days get shorter and so much colder
At about this time I get terrified
At about this time I ask myself:
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Why do we live here?
Cuz it’s our home!
Cuz it’s our home!
And a couple of snow mounds and icy roads won’t take us away
From the land that makes us who we are
Every year winter tries us like a test
All we have to do is just resist
Till the light of spring comes & we can finally hang up our coats
And we’ll be OK for another 6 months or so
