This track evolved out of a poem I had written and a guitar riff that became more of a finger-picking exercise than anything. This is one of the more "live" songs from the record. Also, it's autobiographical and, a little embarrassingly, cute on the lyrical side
lyrics
We fell in love we were both wearing coats
I twirled you outside my car
To say goodnight, I brought you in close
and I still wouldn't dare try to break your heart
Scarves and gloves and zippers zipped tight
We fell in love despite layers of clothes
It was 20 below but even you didn't know
I've seen you cry at brief exposures to cold
For us, winter nights have a different past
One that's etched into the frosted windshield
of our memories
In the cold, clear air I'll fall in love again
My beating heart won't ever freeze
