Seasons of Love

Before I met you
My life was dark like winter

Everything was grey and blue
My hope was left to crack and splinter.

Once I met you
My life lightened like spring

You stuck to me like glue
And took me under your wing.

Once I knew you
Things glowed hot like summer

You said you loved me too
I couldn't have been any dumber.

Once you started drifting
My life grew gloomy like autumn

Everything rapidly started shifting
I was slowly reaching the bottom.

Once you were gone
My life was winter, dark again

Your love was all a con
Yet I am still bound by an invisible chain.

Now the seasons have come to pass
And I'm slowly letting go

My love will always be strong like brass
I just hope that you know.
