December came faster than most And before we knew it, it was cold And you turned to me As if to say that we should not have come this way You didn't ask a question, so I had no reply And we came upon a congregation And we turned our faces to the constellation Singing "we are both believers now" But still there was no voice in the clouds You see, the stars are not our conscience They are just another light in our eyes In our eyes They are just another light keeping us blind Long time I have left Umeah Long time travelled in your company But I see the road before us split And I know that I should follow it But I know that I will find you When the morning spreads it's breath across the night Find you In the morning at the end of my life December's roads are long and they're tough And sometimes I get really tired and stuck But I keep the thought that when I die They will carry me and lay me by your side They will carry me and lay me by your side And there amongst the dirt At last our roads again will merge
