Why Hate the Winter Iron & Wine

[Verse 1]
All the waters run out and you sit there wet
There's a high-speed chase on the TV set
And I think to myself, "Why hate the winter?"

The fireplace glows on the snow outside
You've a towel around your head and words in your eyes
They're the words I would say, if only I was braver

[Chorus]
But it's much too cold to run like a dog all alone
So come to my side and snuggle with me in the blanket
Don't offer your love 'cause I'm not the one who should take it

[Verse 2]
I'll batten the doors and the windows too
The radioman says it's negative two
And then he puts on a song that just wouldn't fit in the summer

Your body, it sways, it's so fragile and bare
You say, "Won't you come here and play in my hair?"
But I stay like a tree taken by a shiver

[Chorus]
And it's much too cold to run like a dog all alone
So come to my side and snuggle with me in the blanket
Don't offer your love 'cause I'm not the one who should take it
