Lyrics of The Transpoetics – Winterstrings

WINTERSTRINGS
(Raffaella Herbert)

As winter resets the fire,
many will leave, and some will stay.
Friends are welcome—
and I greet the lonely.

Winter is cold,
but I celebrate thoughts of home and safety.
Try the sweet, and drink the sweet—
a parallel world of dreams and plays.

Blinded by the game, or smiling from within,
like hot coffee and roasted chestnuts.
The way it goes is fury and poetry,
colliding in the cold.

So it seems,
and the cold makes me weary—
selling the movie and its cast,
a twinkling little star.
Remember forever that I…
love you.

The cold makes me weary,
I dream of the fury.
Like hot coffee and roasted nuts—
Friends are welcome, and I…
greet the lonely.

Try the sweet, and drink the sweet.
Remember that I love you.

The books that speak of love,
of poetry slams,
remind me that I am—
and that history lives
through the purest inner streaks.

Prohibiting your failure,
I am your biggest fan.
Canceling the drops,
filling the can.

Sure in love—I am.
Selling the movie and its cast,
twinkling little star,
remember forever that I…
love you.

The cold makes me weary,
I dream of the fury.
Like hot coffee and roasted nuts—
Friends are welcome, and I…
greet the lonely.
