About the song
From Vaughn: I had just written the lyrics after a long sleepless night. It's mostly statement based song involving my past as it relates to the Winter season. Another part of it came from Steve talking about a winter sunset he witnessed. I can't remember the name of the song was in it's instrumental form. I remember Scott writing the rhythm part, but deciding that he would play it and give Mitch the lead. I wasn't in the band long when we wrote this one, but I was impressed to hear Mitch doing a beautiful, spacey lead to this number. Originally I played an old Yamaha keyboard (not sure the model) with wah and distortion, but I decided to use my KORG for the "studio" recording.
Lyrics
I don’t want that one thing
And I don’t want nothing’ at all
I just want you to be there to catch me when I fall
x2

And if fall away
You’ll see the errors of my ways
Just seein’ your face reminds me of the bright and sunny days
By smiling’ and being yourself you somehow clear the haze

I don’t want that one thing
And I don’t want nothing’ at all
I just want you to be there to catch me when I fall

I don’t expect you to understand what happened three years ago
When I fell down on my knees and destroyed the perfect snow
What happens in past directs the future,
And that’s all you need to know

You are the winter sunset
Cascading across the land
The winter storm brewing in my heart was halted
When you held my hand
x2
