Behind The FAWM Series #6 - "White and Blue"

As I write this post, mid August, on the opposite side of the year as February Album Writing Month, it is hard to imagine that winter ever happened.

It has been a long, hot, humid southern summer (in my case), and the thought of snow seems miles and worlds and ages away.

But when I listen to this, I can remember the winter night it was written.

Snowed in and quiet, almost like time stood still.
Like the world packed it's bags and took a vacation to someplace warm, and left us here, together.


White and Blue

Title suggested by Martin Crumpton


Watching, waiting, time is frozen
As the snow begins to fall


Hold me, wrap me up
Surround me with your love
Inside this calm

And the world glows white and blue
In the warmth of me and you

Moonlit silence, on the outside
Everything is still and bright


Heart beats louder on the inside
Of my chest, your hand in mine

And the world glows white and blue
In the warmth of me and you

Hush now, hush now
Quietly the winds blow over
Us now, us now
Wordlessly this love takes over
