Songtext Air of december Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians

Air of december

Thursday afternoon you cast a shadow 'round my room
the breeze moved the curtains & lifted my perfume
into the air -- & danced with lazy curls in your hair
the sun was in the sky like pink champagne
& it glistened in your eyes all day

I remeber you put a chill across my face like the
air of december -- I swear I remember it that way
I swear I remember it
Where are you now?

You stood by the lake -- I wanted to take you for granted
the grass was thin & high
the water mirrored tiny sparkles to the sky

I remember you put a chill across my face like the
air of december -- I swear I remember it that way
I swear I remember it
Where are you now?

In the by-myself mornings the birds windchime
the treelimbs crackle & the sunshine climb up the sky
like pink champagne that glistened in your eyes all day

I remember you put a chill across my face like the
air of december -- I swear I remember it that way
I swear I remember it
Where are you now
