Love Like Winter

AFI · I Heard A Voice (Live From Long Beach Arena) [2007]

Warn your warmth to turn away

Here it's December, everyday

Press your lips to the sculptures

And surely you'll stay (Love like winter,)

For of sugar and ice,I am made, I am made



It's in the blood, it's in the blood

I met my love, before I was born

He wanted love, I taste of blood

He bit my lip, and drank my war

From years before, from years before



She exhales vanilla lace,

I barely dreamt her, yesterday (yesterday,)

With the lines in the mirror, through the lipstick trace

"Por siempre"

She said, "It seems you're somewhere, far away,"

To his face



It's in the blood, it's in the blood

I met my love, before I was born

She wanted love, I taste of blood

She bit my lip, and drank my warmth

From years before, from years before



Love like winter, Oh, Oh,

Love like winter, winter, 3,4,



It's in the blood, it's in the blood

I met my love, before I was born

He wanted love, I taste of blood

He bit my lip, and drank my war

From years before, from years before
