Linda Ronstadt
"December Dream" lyrics

December Dream

I can see her slowly walking
Through the empty streets of morning
Who she's with I cannot tell
His face fades with the others
In the endless spell
Of dreams I know so well

Though she walks with him
No more with me
And I know she's where
She wants to be
Her happiness
Is there for all to see
But I find that I still wish
It was for me

I can hear her voice still ringing
Through the empty songs I sing
And it seems that all the words I find
To say the things
That crowd my mind
Only bring me closer
To the things
I'd rather leave behind

Though I know the game's been played
And I know the mistakes I've made
I know I shouldn't be afraid to love
For love for any time at all
Is worth the price you pay to fall
