December  came faster  than most
 
 And before we knew it, it was cold
And  you turned to  me
As  if to say  that we should not have  come this way
 
 You didn't ask a question, so I had no reply
And  we came upon a congregation
 
 And we turned our faces to the constellation
 Singing we  are both believers  now
But  still there was no voice  in the clouds
 
 You see, the stars are not our conscience
 They  are just another  light in  our eyes
 In our  eyes
 They are just  another light  keeping us blind
Long  time I have  left Umeah
 Long time travelled in your company
But  I see the  road before  us is split
And  I know that I  should follow it
 But I know that I will find you
 When the morning  spreads it's  breath across the  night
Find  you
 In the  morning at the  end of my  life
December's  roads are long  and they're tough
 
 And sometimes I get really tired and stuck
But  I keep the thought  that  when I die
 They  will carry me and lay  me by your side
 They  will carry me and lay  me by your side
 And there amongst  the dirt
 At last  our roads again  will merge
